The study was conducted through field study at Mufindi District, within Iringa Region. The study involved documentary reviews and field research by gathering relevant information from employers and employees. Mainly collection of field data involved oral interviews and questionnaire.
The study involved a sample of 36 respondents and a random sampling technique was employed. It is concluded that, inadequate knowledge about minimum wage laws by labour officers, insufficient coordination between enforcing organs, weak information sharing on works protection progress, shortage of trainings and education to workers and employers, insufficient personnel, failure to have independent Wage Board for adjustment of minimum wages are the key challenges that hinder effective enforcement of minimum wage laws in Tanzania as a result there is an increase of violation of minimum wage laws by employers.
This study recommends that for the sake of effective enforcement of minimum wage laws, the government should adopt best practices such as institutional coordination, Inspection by monitoring, provision of training to workers, enhancing their participation and to encourage frequent reports on minimum wage protection in the industrial sector. |
