„The highest values of the average net income were registered in services activities in IT (RON 5,513) and the lowest values were registered in hotels and restaurants (RON 1,281). The increase in average net income compared with the previous month was due to the occasional incentive (including annual incentives), goods in kind and money, amounts from the net profit and other funds,” says the INS.
