Minimum wage in Hong Kong

現在香港法例係未有最低工資。

所以前排低收入勞工先會遊行速請政府修定法例，設最低工資。

但個人認為設最低工資並不是有效的方法幫助他們，因為公司通常係工資方面有個預算，如預計$100,000為工資，每人工資為$5,000，故請20人。但約設最低工資，假設為$5,500，那公司可能只會請18人。到時變了18人做20人的工作，2人便失業了。反而增加低技術低收入人士的失業率。

Currently there's no Minimum wage in HK right now but some associations are fighting for it. They are suggesting numbers like 25 to 30 dollars per hour or 6000 per month. The government addressed this issue, although not welcomed by most labor-concerns parties, by promising to setup things like : banning underpaid jobs in labor department advertisements or voluntary minimum wage by business

Shortly after the policy address GOV had also stated a short review which will take place 1 year later

over simplified explaination of running a business. afterall budget is not a golden rule; it is, actually, derived from the labor demand. So it is, indeed, quite wrong to say due to "budget constraints" ... because budget is one thing, and requirement is it's root.

i don't think there's minimum wage by law in hk.
