This will give you the gist. Low numbers - but fixed, standardised minimum wages exist - under-which an employer cannot go.

Unless I go for a professional position, remind me never to look for work over there. Those minimum wages are pathetic...no wonder so many people try and get 2 or more jobs. Federal award...$58 for an 8 hour day. I know kids at fast food joints that get better pay than that!!!. Work in a restaurant out here and it's an even worse comparison.
