Articles 1 and 3 of the Convention. Minimum wage fixing machinery. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes with interest the adoption of the National Minimum Wage Act, 2018, which applies to all workers and their employers, except members of the South African National Defence Force, the National Intelligence Agency and the South African Secret Service. It notes that the Government explains in its report that the country has opted to move away from sectoral wages to a national minimum wage. The Act sets the national minimum wage rate, as well as differentiated rates applicable to certain categories of workers, and provides for regular review by the tripartite National Minimum Wage Commission.
