The minimum wage standard is related to the actual income of an individual

Many people think that the minimum wage has little to do with their actual income. Industry insiders explained that in fact, the adjustment of the minimum wage standard is conducive to the adjustment of the distribution structure and has a substantial impact on the interests of workers. With the adjustment of the minimum wage standard, the level of other benefits of workers linked to it will also change accordingly. For example, enterprises will increase the minimum wage standard in calculating employees' wages during the probation period, overtime pay, medical period wages, wages for work and production stoppage, social security payment base, unemployment insurance benefits, and economic compensation. When the minimum wage is raised, it means that the level of social security will be increased accordingly, which is conducive to the general benefit of workers.

Here's what else you need to know about the minimum wage:

What is the minimum wage?

The minimum wage standard refers to the minimum labor remuneration that the employer shall pay to the employee in accordance with the law on the premise that the employee provides normal work during the statutory working hours or the working hours agreed in the labor contract signed in accordance with the law. The minimum wage standard includes the pension, unemployment, medical insurance premiums and housing provident fund paid by individual workers. The monthly minimum wage applies to full-time workers, and the hourly minimum wage applies to part-time workers.

What items are not included?

1) Allowance for workers in special working environments and conditions such as middle shift, night shift, high temperature, low temperature, underground, toxic and harmful, etc.;

2) Overtime and overtime wages due to the worker;

3) The social insurance premiums and housing provident fund payable by the individual worker;

4) Other income that is not included in the minimum wage standard according to the regulations of the state and the city.

What are the implications?

Overtime. With the increase of the minimum wage, the minimum calculation base of overtime wages and social security premiums will also be increased. The calculation of overtime wages should be at least based on the minimum wage, and the overtime wages on weekdays, rest days, and statutory holidays should be at least 15x, 2x, 3x.

Unemployment insurance benefits.

Unemployment insurance benefits are also linked to the minimum wage. If the employer or the individual has paid contributions for one year but less than ten years, the unemployment insurance benefit is 70% of the minimum wage. For more than 10 years, it is 80% of the minimum wage. Therefore, once the minimum wage is raised, then the benefits during the period of unemployment will also increase accordingly.

Probationary salary.

According to Article 57 of the Opinions of the Ministry of Labor on Several Issues Concerning the Implementation of the Labor Law of the People's Republic of China, after the formation or establishment of labor relations between a worker and an employer, the employer shall pay him a wage not lower than the minimum wage standard if he or she provides normal work during the statutory working hours during the probationary, proficient and Xi periods. After the minimum wage is raised, the probationary wage received at the minimum wage will also be increased.

Take paid time off. Under normal circumstances, the company will have some paid holidays, such as annual leave, sick leave, maternity leave, work-related injury leave, etc., if the basic salary is set according to the minimum wage standard, then you can only get the minimum wage when taking paid leave.

Compensation for work stoppage and production stoppage.

Article 12 of the Interim Provisions on Payment of Wages stipulates that if the employer suspends work or production within one wage payment cycle due to reasons not attributable to the employee, the employer shall pay the employee's wages according to the standard stipulated in the labor contract. If the wage payment cycle exceeds one period, if the worker provides normal work, the labor remuneration paid to the worker shall not be lower than the local minimum wage standard.

How to defend your rights?

According to Article 48 of the Labor Law, the state implements a minimum wage guarantee system, and the wages paid by employers to employees shall not be lower than the local minimum wage standard. If the employer violates the minimum wage payment regulations, the employee may report and complain to the local social security department, or apply for mediation, arbitration or litigation in accordance with the law. The human resources and social security departments at all levels are responsible for supervising and inspecting the implementation of the minimum wage regulations by employers within their jurisdictions, promptly correcting and dealing with illegal acts in accordance with the law, and effectively safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of workers.
