dalays' Theit Worker ee fixed have baen stated by the Supreme Court in Kamani Metals andl
Sen expression “minimum wages” Is not defined in the Act presumably because it
(ot be possible to lay down a uniform minimum wages for all industries throughout the country On
accaunt of different and varying conditions prevailing from industry to industry and from one part of the
country to another, twas held in Hydro (Engineers) Private Ltd. v. The Workmen,) that:-
Components of a minimum wage.- A minithum wage must provide not merely for the bure subsistence of
fife but for the preservation of the efficiency of the worker, and, so it must also provide for some measure
of edycation, medical requirements and amenities. The concept of minimum wage does not meat © wage
that enables the worker to cover his hare physical need and Keep himsclf just above sarwiiet The
capacity of the employer to pay is irrelevant In fixing Therefore, no addition shall be
thade lo the compontents of the minimum wage, wh ear the lower level
ofthe fair wage. Jn Unichay v. State of Kerala it was held that “the Act contemplates that minimum wage
ites should be fixed in the scheduled industries with the dual object of providing subsistence and
maintenance of the worker aiid his family and preserving his efficiency as a worker.
Tait wages There is difference between minimum wages and fair wages. In case of fait i
principles of industry-cum-region, the company’s capacity 10 bear the financial burden must receive duc
ce sideration. But mere hopeful observations made in the director’s annual report cannot be basis for
awarding increased wages because such ob: ‘es made to inspire hope and confidence
jn sharcholders and they cannot be a substitute for actual audited figures.
ST te Works v. State Industrial Court, Nagpur, is a leading ease on the point. In this case the
Supreme Coutt obsetved that in fixing the paying capacity the Tribunal wil have to fix the income as well
ts penmitted deductions and allowances properly incurred. There can be no dispute that experise® incurred
Ta pels cent, publie charges, maintenance of the establishment and expenses incurred in marketing of the
produce sliould be deducted. : 7
ing waye- The Fair Wage Committee in its report published by Government of India, Mit nistry of
{1949 defined the ‘living wage’ as under: :
“the living wage should enable the male eatner 16 provide for himself and his family not merely
essentials of fabd, clothing and shelter but a measure of frugal comfort including edueation for
