Hello,
The minimum wage in the Central Sphere is governed by the Minimum Wages Act, 1948. The Central Government has the authority to revise these wages every five years. However, the final wages depend on various factors such as the cost of living and the level of economic development in a particular area.
👉 The first step to find the most recent minimum wages is to visit the official website of the Ministry of Labour & Employment, Government of India.
👉 Navigate to the 'Minimum Wages' section under the 'Acts' tab.
👉 Once there, you can find the 'Central Sphere' section where you will find the minimum wages applicable to your area.
👉 The wages are usually displayed in a table format with different categories based on skill level (Unskilled, Semi-skilled, Skilled, and Highly Skilled) and location (Area A, Area B, Area C).
👉 Since you're located in Kolkata, you need to look for the wages applicable to Area A, as Kolkata is categorized under Area A.
👉 Make sure you're looking at the correct time frame. In your case, you're interested in the wages effective from 01-10-2018.
📚 Please note: The minimum wage is a statutory requirement by law under the Minimum Wages Act, 1948. Failing to comply with this can result in penalties and legal actions under the said Act.
👍 Lastly, remember that the minimum wage is the basic pay. It does not include additional components like HRA, bonus, or other allowances. These are calculated separately.
I hope this helps you find the information you need! Don't hesitate to ask if you have any other questions.
