Sindh Govt to Raise Minimum Monthly Wage to Rs. 32,000

After a recent increase, the minimum monthly wage for laborers in Sindh is expected to be between Rs. 32,000 and Rs. 35,000, as announced by Labor and Human Resources Minister, Saeed Ghani. 

Ghani recognized that low-income and middle-income families have been most affected by the rising prices of essential goods. The province’s minimum wage board is working on recommendations to raise the minimum monthly wage this year.

Sindh was the first province to raise the minimum monthly wage to Rs. 25,000 two years ago. Ghani stated that his department has already implemented some pro-worker measures before announcing the provincial budget for the new fiscal year. 

The death grant for the family of a deceased worker in Sindh has been increased from Rs. 500,000 to Rs. 700,000, and the government’s assistance for a laborer’s daughter’s wedding has been increased from Rs. 100,000 to Rs. 200,000.

The assistance provided for each worker’s child’s education has been increased from Rs. 6,000 to Rs. 10,000. The amounts of different scholarships offered to their children have also increased. Ghani stated that registered laborers with Benazir Mazdoor Cards will receive free medical care and other essential assistance. 

He reiterated the demand for the Workers Welfare Fund and the Employees Old-age Benefits Institution to be devolved in accordance with the 18th constitutional amendment.

  • Salam. Govt wages to barhane ka announce kar deti hai magar implement nhi karwa sakti mazdoor apni majboori se kum wages per job karta hai. Hamari sind govt ko chahiye k jub announce karte hai to implement bhi karwaen. Bauhat sari factories mein low wages di ja rhi hai jis mein pakistan k bare mashoor namwar garment brands shamil hai. Jo apne workers ko low salary dete hai or kaam on se 12 hours tak lete hai mere husband bhi aise hi aik branded company mein kaam karte hai on ki shift subha 9 baje start hoti hai or off raat k dus baje hota hai or hamare ghar se os ka bus travelling distance 1 hour hai. Salary bauhat kum hai koi facility nahi hai osi salary mein jane ka rent bhi nikalta hai jo monthly 3000 hai. Meri yeh hi guzarish hai k aise factories mein bhi jo bare naam or brand hai govt salary implement karwaen. Shukriya.

  • Sindh government (PPP) already announced minimum wage 25000.but there was no implementation of this order.
    So this is also white lie,because there is no implementation of law especially in Sindh.

  • Sir I would to request the government of Sindh to do surveillance survey in Oil and Gas Sector,
    Companies like,
    Pakistan Refinery limited
    National Refinery
    Parco
    Shall be checked thoroughly along with the Contractual details and necessary action shall be taken,

    I’m working in Pakistan Refinery limited Korangi, here people are getting below 25,000 and asking to increase the Monthly Salary as per Sindh Labor Law but no action is taken so far,

    I would like to raise my words not my voice to Sindh Governor to come and visit how Labors are working.

    Thanks & Regards,

  • We have received less than 25000 in a month… Only announcement… Not any implementation… Let’s see what will happen thereafter
    … Kindly must take a survey after the announcement to check the result of the implementation.

  • Sindh government should take the strict action against those institution and department, they are not implement at this law.

  • Hope they implement the same to their household servants and harees and farmers on their lands.
