Min Wages Act 1948

Minimum Wages Act, 1948 is an Indian law that sets the minimum wages that must be paid to workers in industries. It extends to the whole of India. The concept of min wages emerged with reference to the remuneration of workers in those industries where the level of wages was substantially low as compared to the wages for the similar type of labour In other industries. In 1928, The international Labour Conference Of ILO adopted a draft at Geneva Convention on Minimum Wages and required the member countries to bring a machinery to set up min wages for workers in such industries in which no provision for regulation of wages and where wages were exceptionally low. A draft Bill was prepared and discussed at the 7th Session of the Indian Labour Conference in Nov 1945 and min wages bill was introduced in the Central Legislative Assembly on 11 Apr 1946. In 1948 a tripartite committee, known as the ‘Committee on Fair Wages’ was established. The committee’s report was the benchmark for the formulation of wage policy in India. The committee not only set guidelines for wage rates in the country but also laid down three kinds of wages namely Min wage, Fair Wage & living Wage.
  1. Minimum wage: This is the type of wage provided for bare subsistence so that the workers can maintain a decent standard of living such as providing for education, medical requirements and an adequate level of comfort.
  2. Fair wage: Any wage paid to the employees that are more than the minimum wage is known as a fair wage. It is the wage that seeks to maintain a level of employment in the industry and also looks after the industry’s capacity to pay sufficient remuneration to the employees.
  3. Living wage:A living wage not only meets the minimum requirement of the employees provided by the employers but also allows individuals or families to afford adequate shelter, food, and other necessities. It also includes health, sanity, education, dignity, comfort, and provide for any contingency.
It came into force on 15th March 1948.The act is administered by the Central Government and the State Governments.

Basic + Dearness Allowance + House Rent Allowance

Every 5 years, basic rates of every industry are decided by the Minimum Wages Committee. Dearness Allowance changes every six months and is decided by the Government.

Variable Dearness Allowance

The Indian government decided in 1988 to link wages to the rise in prices of goods and services, so that workers would not lose out on purchasing power due to inflation. This led to the introduction of the Variable Dearness Allowance (VDA) in 1991.
The VDA is a part of wages that is paid to workers to compensate them for the rise in prices. It is revised twice a year, based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI). As of today, 26 union territories (UTs) and states in India have provisions for VDA.
