Poverty has increased over the last twenty years in Fiji especially amongst wage earners, and more so amongst workers not protected by unions.This book explains the nature of the weaknesses in the Wages Councils operations:weaknesses in worker representation and advocacy; weaknesses in the support provided by the ministry of Labour secretariats; and ad hoc nature of the decision-making, and the regularly long delays before new Wages Regulation Orders were issued.This report should be read by all who are interested in the issues regarding wages and poverty, and the role of State. It is hoped that government, workers representatives, employers representatives, and religious and social welfare orgainzations will fully discuss this simply written report and its recommendations.
