2. Minimum Wage
As per the Indian Constitution, 'Minimum Wage'
has been defined as the level of income for skilled
and unskilled workers which ensures a sustaining
standard of living while also providing for some
measure of comfort. A minimum wage not just
supports the bare level of employment, but also
seeks for viable continuous improvement. It aims
at preventing exploitation of labour.
