The minimum wage is currently £12.50 per hour, although the least that most people are paid varies between £35 to £40 per hour, depending on the state of the economy. Campaigners are calling for the minimum wage to be raised to reflect actual wages.

Edit: Following a referendum, the minimum wage has been raised to £56 per hour to reflect actual wages.

Minimum wage in Ventalia is currently 36.66 Libra/hour, which converts to 11.83 U$/hour (exchange rate: 1 U$ = 3.10 Libras). Statute dictates the minimum wage and pegs it to the average national cost of living. Some municipalities dictate a higher minimum wage due to the expense of living and commuting within cities.

The Arthurian Federation does not operate a legally-binding minimum wage. Wages are instead negotiated on an industry-wide basis through so-called general agreements, discussed at collective bargaining sessions between trade unions and employer associations. Latest figures show that 86% of wage-earners are members of a trade union and that 70% of employers belong to an employer association, thus the collective bargaining sessions possess significant legitimacy when setting the market-rate wages. However, these agreements become law and are therefore automatically applicable once signed; they cover both unionised and non-unionised wage-earners and they bestow a duty on all employers of a particular industry.

Recent laws have strengthened the applicability of labour-market agreements to foreign-posted workers. The Federal Labour Court ruled in favour of the Arthurian Trade Union Association in 1081 A.R. (1991 AD) who argued that the general applicability of agreements worked in tandem with constitutional rights (Article 3, Paragraphs 1 and 3, and Article 12, Paragraph 2 of the Basic Law) to justify the equal payment and treatment of foreign-posted workers by foreign companies in Arthurian territory. To that end, in pursuit of equal wage rulings, cantonal ministries of labour (or their equivalents) are obliged to collect from foreign service providers:
  • Their identity, including a name and address;
  • The date of provision of a service;
  • Workplaces;
  • A contact person;
  • Their industrial sector code as listed in Arthurian registers; and
  • The identity of posted employees and the length of their posting period.

Any agreement which is reached by an individual employee with their employer or by an individual employer with their staff is not considered to be a general agreement and therefore becomes invalid if its terms are inferior to those agreed to in that industry's collective bargaining session. If, however, individuals and employers reach terms superior to those made in the general agreement then that contract may take force and is considered legally-binding.

The average monthly wage rate in Arthuria across all industries is A38,854 (NS$4662).

There is no Federal minimum wage nor are there any minimum wages at the Commonwealth level. Minimum wage laws would be unconstitutional in accordance with Right of Man VIII of the Constitution. This states:

Property when rightly viewed is a natural extension of man's life, and he shall have just recourse to defend it in the same. He shall not have it taken excepting in cases of due criminal conviction and he shall not be compelled to act in a manner inconsistent to his inclination of its use, and no man or group of men shall thieve another of his property nor shall his natural property rights be infringed.

The minimum wage was first implemented across the empire by an Imperial Decree of March 1, 1931 to aid in the economic recovery after the end of the Trans-Euxine War. However, in November 1960, a subsequent decree revised the approach from a cross-sector, Empire-wide minimum wage to a minimum wage dependent on individual sector (e.g. steelworkers, longshoremen, railway unions) and governorate. This approach allows for the minimum wage to be adjusted to respond to local economic conditions as well as the different demands of each industrial sector. These wages are negotiated between unions (membership of which is compulsory for roughly 90% of Sevarisian workers) and private sector companies, and are subject to Labor Directorate mediation.

The federal minimum wage in Areguelista is RA$25.50/hour, or NS$8.98 as of February 12, 2017, using the current exchange rate of RA$2.84=NS$1. However, the minimum wage in some municipalities may be adjusted to the cost of living. For example, the minimum wage in Contera, the largest city in Areguelista, is RA$44.60/hour (NS$15.70/hour), as the cost of living is much higher than the rest of the nation.

The Greater Esto-Alisonian Empire has an economy based on protectionist agrarian feudalism, it is technologically regressive (though not to an extreme extent) and culturally medieval, and even we, who oppress our people in the name of nobility and kings do not so loathe the peasants as much as this to establish such a vile and cruel thing.

Benxboro Republic
Formed 76 years ago as a movement to succeed and overthrow The One True Benxboro Empire, the Benxborian Republic is a federal parliamentary republic devoted to liberalism (here known as Freethought) in all its' forms.

By the last century B.C., the Roman Republic had run out of 'civilised' opponents to obliterate so those who ran it started upon each other gold and glory. Rival generals Marius and Sulla took turns to take de facto full control. They were called dictators rather than emperors but amounted to the same thing. In the end a certain Roman with a long nose and bad haircut come out on top. He was called Julius Caesar.

There is no minimum wage in Burgesses, however, living standards are extremely high due to unparallel economic efficiency coupled with competitive laissez-faire style view on hiring, with job salary seeing markups to acquire workers like how prices get marked down on consumer goods to drive sales.

The average wage is 20.35 digital credit units per hour, which is NS$39.68 per hour. This takes into account skilled labor as well.
