Minimum wage in Singapore
Singapore has no general statutory minimum wage. Pay floors come from collective agreements or sector rules; see the notes and any sector rows below.
No universal statutory minimum wage (no_statutory_minimum). The Progressive Wage Model (PWM) sets mandatory sector wage ladders (basic monthly wage floors by job level, rising on a schedule) for resident workers in cleaning, security, landscape, lift and escalator, retail, food services and waste management, plus occupational PWs for administrators and drivers; employers of foreign workers must also pay local employees at least the Local Qualifying Salary. PWM floors are published here as industry rows for the entry job level only.
