Employment Forum - minimum wage review

About the consultation

The Employment Forum is seeking your views about what rates the minimum wage, the trainee rates and the maximum offsets for accommodation and food should be set at in 2020. The Forum welcomes comments, particularly from employers and employees who are affected by the minimum wage.

Responses that are submitted in writing and in stakeholder meetings will be combined with statistical information and data about the economy, as well as other relevant information and evidence, which will help the Forum to decide whether any changes should be recommended to the minimum wage, the trainee rates and the offsets.

The Forum will present its recommendations to the Minister for Social Security in September 2019 and the Minister will then decide whether to propose any changes to the minimum wage legislation for any new rates that would apply in 2020.
