Low Pay Commission Recommendations on the National Minimum Wage: Discussion
Mr. Ois?n Gilmore:
That is the responsibility of the Workplace Relations Commission. I can tell the Deputy that there were 12,790 complaints to the Workplace Relations Commission over the course of 2022. Of those, only 72 requested an investigation under the National Minimum Wage Act. There were 62 complaints seeking adjudication under the National Minimum Wage Act, which is 136 complaints, or just over 1% of all complaints. Of the 24 employers convicted in 2022, two convictions relate to the National Minimum Wage Act 2000.
