Employment in construction of buildings and other structures is already included in the schedule of the Minimum Wages Act, 1948 by various State Governments. Certainly, there would be a difference between the minimum wages and market wages. Given the spurt in the construction industry throughout the country and the dearth of experienced labor, the market wages would certainly be higher. Therefore, it would be advisable for you to visit the websites of the State Governments of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka, ascertain the minimum rates of wages fixed, and then decide on your own rates.

Dear Umakanthan,

Thank you for your suggestion. The minimum wage is lower than the market rate. I would like to know what other industries are paying in each city. This information will help us plan our wages and benefits more effectively. Could you please inform me of the current wage for an 8-hour shift at your company?

Thanks & Best Regards,

Dear Umakamthan,

Thank you for your suggestion. Market rates vary from the minimum wages. I would like to know what market rates are paid by different construction industries. Kindly provide information regarding the wages mentioned in my initial query within your industry.

Dear Praveen,

When you acknowledge the post of a senior, especially a person of the stature of a retired Additional Commissioner of Labour, you could have addressed him as "Dear Mr. Umakanthan" and not as "Dear Umakanthan." I request you to develop the ability to distinguish between when to be informal and when to be formal. You cannot be either everywhere, especially in a public forum like this!

Thanks,
Dinesh Divekar

Dear Umakanthan,

Thank you for your suggestion. Market rates vary from the minimum wages. I would like to know what market rates are paid by different construction industries. Please provide me with the wages as mentioned in my initial query specific to your industry.

Dear Dinesh,

I was not aware of Umakanthan sir's designation, since the below-mentioned signature line (Umakanthan Sir Reply) did not appear on my computer. I don't know whether it is an internet problem or something else. As you can see, I posted once, but it appeared three times on the site. Additionally, I was unable to see my post for half an hour.

Secondly, please review my reply to Umakanthan sir. I mentioned, "Please let me know wages as mentioned in my first query in your industry." If I knew that sir is the Additional Commissioner of Labour (RTD), then why would I write 'your industry' in the above-mentioned sentence?

Mistakes happen, regardless of the reason. Thank you for your suggestion.

Dear Umakanthan Sir,

I apologize for my improper words. I hope you will overlook them.

Thanks & Best Regards,
