What will the new living wage be like?
Under the Living Wage, a worker's income will be decided on the basis of his basic needs. In this, payment will be decided based on the needs of housing, food, health, education and clothing. Therefore, once the new wages are implemented, the workers' earnings will increase, because obviously more money will be required to meet these needs. A government official related to the matter said that we will move beyond the minimum wage within a year.

ILO approved the plan
ILO had recently approved these changes regarding living wage in its meeting held in Geneva. There are more than 50 crore workers in a country like India, out of which 90 percent come from the unorganized sector. The daily minimum wage here is Rs 176, which is decided differently in every state. If seen, the national wage has not been changed since 2017.

India has been a member of ILO since its establishment in 1992. It is believed that to eliminate poverty, the government is preparing to implement living wage instead of minimum wage.
