All the people ranting here and forming ITK, when the salary structure is implemented and they found out they were hitherto wrong, would rather go dumb than apologize for misleading the public.
It is more honourable to be silent in matters you know nothing about or you aren't sure of than spew out something that will tell negative of your person in future.

When will the new minimum wage reflect to the workers salary account? Is it next month or when a supplementary budget is made? Pls I need answer to this

If you ask me.... Nah who I go ask?

Acidosis:


LOL. You've not been following the whole debate. The current minimum wage only affects those earning below 30k.

The argument is that no worker should earn below 30k. If you're currently on a salary of 500k per month, do not expect a 40% increment -- 900k. Your salary remains the same.
Which of the state governors or CEOs can double your salary at the current state of the economy?

That's the argument and conclusion both at the executive and legislative arms.

Issues like this are some of the reasons some of us kicked against the senseless increment in minimum wage. How can you increase minimum wage from 18k to 30k (40% increment) and tell those earning 40k, 100k, etc. to go to hell? Labour union also f00lishly agreed to the du.mb idea.

The public like you and many others out there are also making the same mistake. You all were f00led. Your salary will not increase, not even by 1% unless you earn below 30k.

Better to increase minimum wage by 15% and allow it affect all Nigerian public and private sector workers. That's what I expect from Labour Unions. The current arrangement is dum.b, an idea of du.mb legislators in Abuja.

I think you are mistaken bro. The minimum wage is the benchmark for all salaries e.g, in the civil service, it is salary of a Level 1 Step 1 officer and all other levels and steps are calculated based on it using the relativity policy, though the proportion of increase might not be the same across board.

Haa...where I work doesn't have any form of union

It would be hard, they might pay or delay it if the coy is good

daddy001:
Why worry.... wait for the Salary structure to be released !The increment is across board.

Don't mind that guy. There are so many of these negative persons on this thread who have little or no knowledge about the concept of minimum wage and they're trying so hard to force their ignorance down our throats.

omonla10:
that's impossible.. So if u earn 150k now u will earn 300k abi? Fa fa fa foul.. 150k might be increased to like 180k sha..

Is that EBA and efo riro? nice.

klas:
With the increase from 18,000 to 30,000 for Grade 01 Step 1, those above that level must have their salaries adjusted because a lower grade cannot earn than higher ones.

However, the degree of adjustments for all levels from 01 to 17 will not be the same and not in proportion to the increase in the minimum wage.

Gbam! You have said it all.

Theirs won't be increased.

Yeah, it was well explained in our acct dept. There will be an increase in all levels. To my understandinge a staff presently receiving 100k will now start having 130k

How to calculate ur new salary, for example, if u are receiving 50k when is 18 k how much will u take when is 30k. Make X the subject of d formula

don't mind guys here, they won't keep mute if they don't have anything to say.
Fact: minimum wage will cut across board. A staff on level 3 that has been receiving 30k will not be lumped together with a level 1 and 2 staff that have been receiving 18k and 26k respectively, where is the justice in this. ?
For people presently earning higher than 30k, their new pay will be calculated by using only their basic salary (you can get your basic salary from your payslip) to divide the last minimum wage of 18k then multiply the result By the present 30k minimum wage, after which, you now add other allowances such as housing medical, transportation and others

will this also affect firms whose staff get a basic salary of 9,500, but with added allowance take home 75k .

Oga u don't know anything, nada. 67% is for every grade level. Add 67% of ur current salary to your salary, that's ur new salary. U guys will be saying what u know nothing about. Don't forget the higher ur grade level, the higher ur tax rate.

mistacoco2:

whether it reflects when supplementary budget has been passed or not, the important thing is that it has been signed into law and has taken effect, even if your employer delays its payments. It's increment will be owed in arrears to the employee

BrokenCock:

100k will be 167k. Don't forget tax is included in the 67% increment

ETHIX:



Minimum wage affects all workers' salary. The salary structure is computed using the minimum wage. The last minimum wage was computed using N18,000.

Now that it has changed to N30,000 workers salary will be adjusted to reflect the increase at all levels. Minimum wage increase is not just for cleaners

. You have just explained what NLC is fighting for.This is the position of the NLC....

This debate about if % increase cuts across all levels was what Ngige used to floor Obiano in one of Anambra Gubernatorial election.

Obiano said at the debate that the % increase would only affect the level 1 guys but Ngig being a former governor came and cleared the air.

Ngige said minimum wage isn't just for Level 1 staffs that it will go across all the levels.
He made Obiano look like a rookie in governance matters after his explanation. Chants of Onwa Onwa filled the room afterwards for his clear explanation on minimum wage

Ever since I have always learnt that minimum wage is not just for cleaners level alone, even those on 200k will experience an increase.

Except there is a clause that says those earning huge will not experience 66% like those on the lower cadre, I still stand with that debate Ngige had over Obiano.

The increase will be UNIFORM across all levels, unless otherwise stated in the LAW...

Bros, no be today we start dey hear of minimum wage Nah?
Abi 'next level' own dey different?
Hmm, you obviously don't much about minimum wage.

Amitez:


My understanding is that it has little or no effect on everyone earning above minimum wage. That is how it is applied world over.
In my opinion, only cleaners, messengers and those whose wages are below N30k will be affected, therefore, any governor objecting to it or using it as excuse to owe salary should resign. In fact a serious Labour union would have determined the real impact on their states, but no, they will just be slumbering while the government deceive the populace with excuse of higher wage bills.

it shouldnt be that way, they did it that way during the last minimum wage and it plunged the economy into recession /inflation.
If they want to do it right, anyone already earning 30 should not av more than 2k added, everyone under 30k should be paid 30k minimum wage and the rest stay on your lane or increase it in a way that it won't mess up the economy, what they did the lady time was to compute it with the % increase from 7500 to 18000 on all salary structures, that plunged Gej government into debt, what got me off balance then was that this all happened under a professor and a former world Bank chief, how she let that escape her still baffles me, it's the most simple economics, no where in the world is salary increased like that base on minimum wage, no where.

no where in the world has that a normally happened before except for Nigeria during Gej regime, and it messed up his government, Gej could av done more if those money was available, but alas we increased minimum wage on all level with the same %, if anyone of them owned a business would they increase their staff salaries based on %?
Obiano has a season banker and an economist was actually right, Ngige is a medical doctor and a politician, those who clapped for him did so on ignorance, if this government increases bases on % on all level we are in for a disaster.

How to calculate ur new salary, for example, if u are receiving 50k when is 18 k how much will u take when is 30k. Make X the subject of d formula

lets go
18k was the basic
now 30k is the basic
30 minus 18 = 12k
therefore % increase =
12/18*100
=66.67%
With 50k salary earner
66.67/100*50,000
=33,000k
New wage will be 50k+33k
83k
There are other ways of calculating it though using just the basic

chai! and u are spewing thrash with confidence.

The increase will reflect across all the salaries for all government workers just that the increase decrease as the grade increase.

Josephamstrong1:

12k is added to all salaries.
Don't even think that % BS.
Now it is 66.7%, you think you can be skyrocketed from 150k to 250k? Dream on.
It is called minimum wage. The lowest you can pay to any federal or civil worker.
So, expect 12k increment. lol

You get it all. 30k minus 18k equal to 12k across all salary earners.

Zombiekiller010:
Will it affect your corpers

Yes.... As confirmed by DG yesterday and beginning from this month April

The basic in your salary is a product of minimum wage. Your current basic, from which other items of your salary is computed, is a product of minimum wage. Now that minimum wage of Nigeria has gone up from N18,000 to N30,000, that is approximately 67% increase of your current salary, it then means that your basic from which other items of your salary is computed will be adjusted to reflect the minimum wage. In short, multiply your salary by 1.67 to get your new salary based on the new minimum wage. 30,000/18,000 ×100=66.66667 ~67. Do not let your employer deceive you o.
