Database on minimum wages for low-paid workers in collective agreements

The database was developed and is maintained by Eurofound. It covers collective agreement texts from 2015 to 2025 related to a selection of low-paid sectors from all 27 EU Member States, except for Poland where data is only available until 2022. In summer 2025 the database contains coded minimum wage rates from 678 series of collective agreement texts (and where available, also the highest rates in these agreements were coded).
