| contents | Minimum wage coverage and compliance in developing countries Uma Rani Patrick Belser Martin Oelz Setareh Ranjbar Using household and labour force survey data from 11 developing countries, the authors calculate rates of minimum wage compliance for formal/informal employees covered by current legislation and assess the average “depth” of violations. Though compliance is negatively related to the ratio of minimum to median wages, countries with a national minimum wage set at a meaningful level typically achieve higher compliance rates than countries with occupational or industry-specific minimum wage systems. However, better compliance – especially for women, ethnic groups, and unskilled and informal workers – also depends on contextualized yet comprehensive minimum wage policies combining union/employer involvement, awareness-raising and credible enforcement. 10.1111/j.1564-913X.2013.00197.x DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1564-913X.2013.00197.x publication.journalArticle |
