Minimum wage workers in Australia have been given a 6% pay rise, taking them to $A1000 ($NZ1207) a week. The new minimum hourly rate is $A 26.44 -- equivalent to $NZ 32.04 per hour.
I was surprised ...
@nprofile1q... cool, especially the stat about how few are on the minimum wage. If that's not distorted by dodgy counting that's great :)
