2.2 Wages

The wage regime's architecture (the Act 2074 + the minimum-wage machinery): The minimum-remuneration machinery: the Minimum Wage Fixation Committee (the tripartite body — the government, the employers, the workers; the periodic review; the notification's rates: the basic + the dearness/allowance faces); The wage's protection: the payment's timeliness (the fixed intervals); the deductions' discipline (the lawful deductions only — the fines-and-damages' limits); the equal remuneration (the sex-based discrimination's bar — the constitutional command's statutory face); The wage's substitutes-and-additions: the overtime (the premium rates for the extra hours); the piece-rates' floor; the bonus (the profit-sharing's old regime, now absorbed); the facilities (the accommodation, the transport, the food — the remuneration's package).
