Expert Panels: Minimum Wage

minimum wage: In a policy paper released Wednesday, the Ontario Chamber of Commerce explores possible scenarios for setting the minimum wage including the current ad-hoc system where government decides to formal expert panels, according to The Star. What we ve heard from members, its not that any of our members are calling for it, but if you re going to make some changes here, it needs to be predictable, it needs to be transparent and it needs to be fair, said Allan O Dette, the chambers president and CEO, in an interview and Ontarios businesses may not be keen to see a hike in the minimum wage, but if its going up, they d like to see increases tied to inflation. It settles on linking the minimum wage with the consumer price index as the best method. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
