THE parties to the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement are expected to enact laws on minimum wage, and Singapore's response to this requirement will be observed keenly.
The full wording of the agreement has yet to be made public, but a summary of the document published on the website of the United States Trade Representative Office shows that all TPP parties "agree to have laws governing minimum wages, hours of work, and occupational safety and health".
