Proposed increase in minimum wage to be debated
Reaching a national living wage is 'still an aspiration' for Government.
The Enterprise Minister says proposed changes to the minimum wage, set to be debated this month, are a step towards that.
All workers over 18 could see their hourly rate increase to £7.85.
In 2017, the Isle of Man living wage was calculated to be £8.61 per hour.
Laurence Skelly says reaching that figure is a commitment in the Programme for Government:
