Andrea Garnero of the Organisation
for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) said a proposed
nine-euro gross minimum hourly wage in Italy, despite being the
"highest of OECD countries" at the moment, "isn't the solution
to the Italian salary issue or to problems of the Italian job
market".
Garnero spoke at a hearing on the topic before the Lower
House Labour Committee.
"It's a legitimate tool, interesting, with some potential,
but also with some limitations," Garnero said.
The ruling 5-Star Movement (M5S) of Deputy Premier Luigi Di
Maio has vowed to introduce a minimum wage as a priority
measure.
