Yesterday marked the commencement of this year’s second daily minimum wage rise to 400 baht, according to deputy government spokesman Karom Polpornklang. Additionally, a 10% increase in salaries for state officials is scheduled to take effect on May 1.

He emphasized that workers eligible for the revised wage should report any non-compliance by their employers to the Labour Ministry. This directive was officially sanctioned on March 26.
