The government of Cameroon has increased the minimum wage of workers from 36.270 FCFA to 41.875FCFA.
The Minister of Labour and Social Security, Grégoire Owona made the announcement today in Yaounde.
The Minister’s decision comes after trade unions threatened to carry out an indefinite protest on Mondays — until the decision officially goes into effect.
The protest which started on February 6th, 2023, came against the backdrop of increase in the prices of basic commodities across the country.
