LEGAL NATURE OF THE FOOD ALLOWANCE DUE TO CONTRACTUAL STAFF PAID FROM PUBLIC FUNDS AND CIVIL SERVANTS

Summary/Abstract: The elimination of meal vouchers was compensated with the granting of a monthly food allowance, from December 2018 for employees in the budgetary sector. The inclusion of food allowance in the calculation basis of vacation allowance has been an issue subject to continuous debate among state employees for years, with many saying that, during vacations, their incomes are reduced by several hundred lei. The food allowance regulated by art. 18 of Framework Law no. 153/2017 on the remuneration of personnel paid from public funds, with subsequent amendments and supplements, does not form part of the calculation basis for the vacation allowance due to contractual personnel paid from public funds and civil servants is the conclusion reached by the judges of the High Court in resolving an appeal in the interest of the law.
