The proposed amendments to the Construction Industry Minimum Wage Regulation (Regulation) will:
update the minimum wage rates for the industrial, commercial and institutional and heavy construction sectors of the construction industry wages for 2025, 2026, and 2027;
add a new Trainee 3 level to all Skilled Tradespersons wage schedules; and
update and modify the classification of trades descriptions for the Heavy Construction sector.
