It is no longer news that Nigerian government just passed the bill to increase minimum wage from N18, 000 to N30, 000.

I'm currently employed in one of our country's ministry agency 2yrs ago at level 8 on a salary of about N121, 000 per month.

My fellow nairalanders please help me to understand the modalities in the calculations and how the minimum wage increment is going to affect my current salary..
You mean just salary 121k uhm! Maybe u mean plus allowances.

Government is proposing 11% consequential adjustment for workers on grade level 7-14. If labour accepts the offer eventually, your current N121,000 will be increased by 11%. You can do the maths. Cheers!

Going from what you stated, here's the math:

11% increment translates to

1.11 X 121,000 = 134,310

Therefore, new take home pay = 134,310NGN



Thanks.

OK,what was the percentage increased on the last MW? which is something like
New-old wage 30-18=12
12/30(incremental difference ÷ the proclamation new wage)=0.4×100= 40%(the new percentile increment).
40/100% ×121,000=approx 48,000
The new wage will be something like 121,000+48,400~=170,000.
NB; depending on the parameters utilized for the calculation eg,basic salary(excluded other allowances), or gross/cumulative salary excluding PAYE, Union dues,mortgage bank deduction (housing scheme)......
For now,that's the little I can give you. But there are various formulas for the calculation and variables been considered.
I stand to be corrected but will give the actual formulas later.

Your calculation is wrong sir.

12 is supposed to be divided by 18 * 100 = 66.6% increase and not 40%.

You must have been brought up in a broken home,possibly your Dad was absent.Another hypothesis is that you were brought up in a military barracks with your father been a rank and file(non commissioned officer)

Do you need this? So broken home kids don't go far in life? Or personnel kids don't turn great? You brought yourself below a fool for this. Have fun amigo.


And for the record am from a broken home and doing very great.

he said he is currently working with an agency under a ministry. It could be true we have agencies in ministries such as interior that pay such. Eg Civil defense,immigration, prison and fire. All these are agencies under interior and they pay up to that for level 8 step 2

You're right about the agencies under ministry of interior but I haven't seen any civil defense, immigration, prison or fire officer at level 8 step 2 receiving up to 120k.
Perhaps 120k or 123k is stated in the appointment letter but what gets to you at the end of the month is roughly between 115k and 119k at most but never upto 120k for any level 8 step 2.

FG wants pay you 9.5% of 30k...calculate it but Labour demands 29.5% of 30k
Re: How Will The New Minimum Wage Affect My Current Salary? by UcLloyd: 7:15pm On Oct 11, 2019
People just conclude without asking questions. He said an agency under a ministry. That's the salary of most paramilitary na. Information is power, but Nigerians will never be quiet to get information. Op, it depends on the percentage FG agrees on, so far FG is offering 11%, Labour is insisting on 29% for 7-12. Wait till 15th Oct to know the actual percentage.

Not of 30k o, 29.5% of your current salary, when u get it, u add it to your current salary.

29% of 121000 is 35090,plus 121000= 156090.

So going by Labour offer of 29% increment, his new salary will be #156,090

Labour will never agree to 11% increment. They already rejected it. Op is most likely in the paramilitary, so after risking his life to keep others safe, u will coman give him paltry 11%, for what!!!

It must be consolidated salary structure, like civil defence, frsc, police, immigration, customs, prison service that earn N120k plus as level 8.

Ministry of Edu. salary isn't bad too. FCE, Fed Polys and Fed Unis all uses Consolidated too but not up to 100k for Bsc. Its 95+ b4 deduction for CONTEDISS 7:3 but interior pays well.

By virtues of increase from 18000 to 30000, it corresponds to about (30,000 - 18,000)/18,000 = 66.67%.

So the increase in your salary will be 1.6667 * 121,000 = 201,670.7

So the increase implies your new salary will be 201,670.70. So the new minimum wage should correspond to an increase of about 100,000. So apparently Nigeria is just not ready for that increase.

. If you work for Federal government your Level 7 will be close to 80 or 90 k. while level 8 will be close to 115k or close to 120k However regardless of the money as from Level 7 you are a Senior Staff. .The government wants to pay 9% of your present salary as an addition to your real salary as from level 7 to 11....So if your money is 120k just add 9% of the money to it.You get your new salary. As from Level 12 and above is 5% addition. The NLC does not want that increase. It is proposing 30%increase for Level 7 to 15.....If fully applied Level 1 will get 30k while level 6 will get about 70 or 80k.

To Find your Salary;

Salary=121,000×8÷2=18,000

Therefore 18,000-30,000÷2/8

salary × minimum wage + Govt =7.6577

Therefore: go and ask your boss your salary Idi ot.

No sir,elementary maths will tell u that 18 is greater than 12 if you are to subtract from 30. and if you are using % to measure, then you will understand that 18 is 60% of 30 & 12 is 40% of 30 then deduce the difference.
So 12k + 18k= 30k, hence, the 40% increment.

Firstly VAT are not charged on salaries but on goods purchased. Secondly, the new minimum wage derivatives will be based on the basic salaries ( check your payslip to know what your basic pay is).

I have been wondering too. But with all the increment in VAT it's turning out to be a waste of time
