Minimum wage will increase Jan. 1 2009

The minimum wage employers must pay their workers is going up 7 percent Jan. 1, 2009.
So a carpenter, who now makes 6,686 colons a day minimum will make 7,154 colons. A computer programmer will go from 8,032 a day to 8,594 colons daily minimum.Salaries are adjusted every six months for inflation and the devaluation of the colon. There are approximately 550.1 colons to the U.S. dollar.
