Lowest paid earnings increase by two per cent
The latest earnings survey shows that the Island's lowest paid have had an income boost in the last twelve months.
Average full time earnings increased by just over two per cent in the last year.
Policy and Reform Minister Chris Thomas says evidence shows the Island is making progress towards leveling out the benefits that come from growth in the economy.
He claims it's being spread though the working population:
