Netherlands is wrong, for a 18 year old it’s 7.03€. way too low for any western country but here we are

This means nothing without the cost of living. The lowest wage could be fantastic if it’s cheap to live.

What is this weird “minimum wage” thingy everyone keeps talking about???? /s

Well, I read that sentence, but still is 20% at 21 years old and 15% at 22%. I don’t think that’s insignificant.
Plus, perhaps more importantly, the minimum wage sets a reference for many slightly higher paid jobs. When you look at the amount of jobs between 101% to 110% of minimum salary, then you realize that it really does play an important role in The Netherlands.

Minimum wage in Belgium is *not* 2200.

If the UK was in the table, it would be right at the top end.
Min wage in UK is £12.21 per hour, so some maths are required to compare to €/month. At current exchange rate it equates to approx €2,400 per month.

Germany has the highest minimum wage, when adjusted for living costs.
