Organised Labour submits N615,000 minimum wage demand in fresh proposal
Organised labour, comprising the Nigerian Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress, has demanded N615,000 as the new minimum wage for workers in the country.
An impeccable source, who is an executive of organised labour, who did not want to be named because he was not authorised to speak on the matter, told our correspondent that the new wage of N615,000 monthly was reached after consultations by the NLC and TUC, reports Sunday PUNCH.
The source, who was a member of one of the sub-committees set up by the government to work on getting a new minimum wage for the country, however, said the wage might still increase, following the recent hike in electricity tariff.
