    Hi

    Sorry if this is in the wrong thread, I just have a quick question. The minimum wage has been reduced to 7.65, does that mean that everyones wages are being cut by a euro or does it only effect people on min wage??

    Its not a mandatory cut, it just allows employers to pay that as a minimum level. From what I understand (and I'm open to correction), new employees can be started at this level, but existing employees have to give their permission before a reduction can be enforced.

    That's my understanding of it too.

    Its the new minimum wage for NEW experienced employees. Current employees stay on their existing wage like what is said in a post above. The minimum wage is less again for a non experienced worker.
