Notes on this jurisdiction's rules and sources

National minimum wage (hourly, FJD) under reg 4 of the Employment Relations (National Minimum Wage) Regulations 2015; it does not apply to workers covered by the ten sectoral wages regulations (building/civil/electrical, hotel and catering, manufacturing, mining and quarrying, printing, sawmilling and logging, security services, wholesale and retail, garment, road transport), which set class-by-class hourly rates. Industry rows record the general/unskilled class of each sector (casual workers get 25% more).
