最低工資增至40元 王沛詩:調升已跑贏通脹 未公布實施「一年一檢」
11 Jan 2023

 

行政長官會同行政會議接納最低工資委員會建議,最低工資由現行時薪37.5元加至40元,增幅為2.5元或6.7%,5月1日實施。最低工資委員會表示,勞資學官四方一致達成共識,並認為領取最低工資的人數減少是好事,代表社會有進步。至於會否實施「一年一檢」,委員會稱如有消息會適時公布 。

 

委員會主席王沛詩指,今次調升已跑贏通脹少許,強調香港是多元社會,委員會涵蓋各界人士,都以數據為依歸,並以香港利益為前提,避免低下階層薪酬過低,同時確保低薪職位不會大量流失,兩者要取得適當平衡。她說,是次受惠行業包括清潔工、物管、零售、派遞等行業。

 

署理政府經濟顧問侯家俊表示,環球通脹雖然高企,但本港整體通脹温和,而對上一次調整最低工資為2019年,截至去年11月累計通脹為5.4%,亦低於是次6.7%的升幅。

 

但他強調,通脹並非調整唯一因素,今次調升受惠人數介乎4.65萬至8.73萬人,而2019年的受惠人數介乎6.15萬至9.5萬人。他又指,調整測試最高水平達44元,若然加至時薪44元,失業率將上升0.37至0.54個百分點,1.38萬至1.98萬人流失職位。

 

記者會上,二人多次被追問「一年一檢」,王沛詩回應指,現行機制已運行12年,已累積經驗及打好基礎,「係咪時間改,我哋拭目以待」,如有消息會適時公布,會盡量尋求優化機制。

 

她補充,最低工資實施後要視乎市場反應,例如勞方工時及工資改變;資方營運情況、生意額、會否轉嫁消費者;以及社會反應。而委員會撰寫及提交報告,特首、行會和立法會審議報告,以及企業準備均需時,會考慮能否壓縮所需時間。
