The government should guarantee that minimum wages are paid in both government-run departments and private businesses, according to a resolution passed by the National Assembly on Tuesday.
A member of parliament named Syed Rafiullah introduced the resolution.
In response, Federal Minister of Finance and Revenue Muhammad Aurangzeb declared that the federal government is determined to enact minimum wage legislation in the nation’s capital and in ministries that are related.
The minimum wage is being implemented, he said, under the supervision of Deputy Commissioners and Commissioners in the federal capital. He added, “A notification was issued for its implementation following the passage of the minimum wage legislation by parliament.”
