What is the training minimum wage
The minimum training wage applies to people who are required by their employment agreements to undertake recognised industry training involving at least 60 credits a year. The new entrants minimum wage does not apply to trainees.
An employee being paid less than the relevant minimum wage can contact a Labour Inspector, who may intervene in the workplace to recover any money owed and ensure further problems do not occur. Employees can also get help from the Department of Labour’s Mediation Services.
