Minimum wages depend on the state. Every state will have its own minimum wages pertaining to the industry. You can check it based on your locality. All cadres in employment are covered under the minimum wage.

As Christopher stated, minimum wages vary from state to state, so you need to check the minimum wages of your state. White-collar employees are also covered in this, as minimum wages are generally defined in three categories:

1. Skilled
2. Semi-Skilled
3. Unskilled

Please note that minimum wages are revised from time to time.

The minimum wages are set periodically by the concerned department of the state, and therefore, they vary from time to time. The provisions of the act are applicable to white-collar employees as well as employees who are divided into three categories:

1. Skilled
2. Semi-skilled
3. Unskilled
