    Oh yes! Almost. Restaurant workers in the US are only paid a few dollars.

    Customers are meant to pay their wages through tips.

    Nice, isn't it?

    Is the minimum wage higher or lower v the median wage of yesteryear?

    Nevermind

    Last day of the much publicised minimum wage mechanism consultation

    https://www.mwc.org.hk/en/consultation/index.html

    It really should be a simple formula based on a % of the median wage. e.g. 50% of the median wage would be an increase for 15% at the bottom.
