Consultation sought with minimum wage earners

DED asks workers to submit examples of finances

People earning minimum wage are asked if they'd be willing to submit their finances to government.

The Department of Economic Development has launched a public consultation inviting people to submit their views to the Minimum Wage Committee.

Results would enable it to make recommendations for any changes come next April.

Opinions of workers in that wage bracket are of particular interest - the committee would like them to submit their weekly income and expenditure.

Submissions are also welcome from the 16-21 age group.

The closing date is on the 9th December - more information can be found online at gov.im.
