Minimum wage to rise slightly next year

The Geneva minimum wage will be raised from the 1st January next year.

The increase, which is linked to inflation, will be small – a rise of just 16 centimes an hour at CHF 24.48 an hour.

The agricultural sector has a lower legal rate, but that will also go up, slightly. 

The Geneva minimum wage was brought in following a vote in 2020 – and is one of the highest in the world. 

It doesn’t apply to those under 18, apprentices or summer jobs.
