No statutory minimum wage, except for certain occupations. Minimum wage is often set by collective bargaining agreements in sectors of the economy and enforceable by law.

Our average wage is 10c a hour. However instead of a minimum wage, employers have the ability to deduct a person's pay based upon how hard he works.

We are generous in the amount of flexibility such employers have when deciding these prices, ranging from as low as minus $10000 to as high as 15c.

You'll see about 1-2 bottle caps per hour worked, which is close to $2-4 NSD per hour. Food, Drink, and Shelter is relatively cheap though due to intense competition which keeps the prices from becoming inflated too far. There is no minimum wage though.

Yes there are set wages for every profession and every profession has a standard wage which is divided into 20 pay grades that can be earned through standardized competency based tests, and if a worker feels that they deserve a promotion in pay grade they need only apply to the department of labor and have an assessor visit them and rate their performance and assign them to the correct pay grade.

We abolished that draconian liberal measure way back in 2030.

However, it's worth noting that anyone caught failing to earn over 50,000 credits ($100,000) is executed, because low-earners are filthy Communists.

The minimum wage in Saor Éireann is SÉ£10 per hour, roughly US$17. This is before tax, but there is only a 50% income tax on people earning less than SÉ£25,000 per year, and people earning less than SÉ£12,500 per year do not have to pay any income tax, and may receive financial support from the government if they require it.

9.41$ for those of us who like rounding.

Because the UK is communist. Nice analogy.
