Minimum wages

The same notification also says

• The rates are per day. The notification prints no monthly figure and gives no rule for working one out, so none is shown.
• The grades are the notification's own: unskilled, semi-skilled, Skilled-II (junior grade) and Skilled-I (senior grade), with Skilled-I the highest paid.
• Where the existing rates of an employee under a contract or agreement are higher than the rate notified, the higher is treated as the minimum rate applicable to that employee.
• Women and disabled workers get the same rates payable to male and abled workers.
• It applies to all Government departments, semi-Government organisations, and all public and private undertakings within the State.
• It was approved by the Council of Ministers on 18 May 2023 and issued with the concurrence of the Finance Department, and was sent to the Controller of Printing and Stationery for publication in the Mizoram Gazette.
• The number of working hours a day will normally be about eight for technical work; for clerical staff, peons and the like it is as prescribed by the employer, and office workers follow the office hours of the office or department where they are employed.
