Article 4. Application of statutory minimum wages
1. The statutory minimum
wage per month is the minimum wage used as the basis for any agreement between
employers and employees on monthly salary and payment thereof. The job- or
position-based salary of an employee who ensures the monthly normal working
hours and has fulfilled his/her labor productivity norms or tasks as agreed
shall not be lower than the statutory minimum wages per month.
2. The statutory minimum
wage per hour is the minimum wage used as the basis for any agreement between
employers and employees on hourly salary and payment thereof. The job- or
position-based salary paid for every working hour to an employee who has fulfilled
his/her labor productivity norms or tasks as agreed shall not be lower than the
statutory minimum wages per hour.
3. In case an employee
receives a weekly or daily salary, a piece-rate pay or a fixed pay,
the wages paid to the employee, when converted into monthly or hourly salary,
shall not be lower than the statutory minimum wage per month or per hour. The
normal working hours-based converted monthly or hourly salary shall be
subjected to the employer’s decision in accordance with regulations of law. To
be specific:
a) The converted monthly
salary shall equal the product of the weekly salary and 52 weeks divided by 12
months; or the daily salary multiplied by total normal working days in a month;
or the piece-rate pay or fixed pay for the works performed during normal
working hours in a month.
b) The converted hourly
salary shall equal the weekly or daily salary divided by the normal working
hours in a week or a day respectively; or the piece-rate pay or fixed pay
divided by the working hours, considered as normal working hours, spent for
producing a predetermined quantity of products or performing assigned works.
