Wage hike offers only small relief
The new minimum daily wage rate, with a few baht increase depending on location, will take effect as of Wednesday in what is dubbed a tiny new year’s gift for labourers.
The new structure which is announced in the Royal Gazette on Friday will see minimum daily wages going up to 313-346 baht from the current 308-330 baht rate which is applied to 10 clusters of provinces.
