Whomever post this is confused or is trying to confuse us, Indigenous Grenadians.
In New York City the Minimum wage is approx $14.50/hr = the price of 2 american meal (Bigmac) Therefore a good guide would be that the min wage in Grenada should be able to buy 2 caribbean meals (2 Rotis).:) Anyway an analysis of the proper cost of living should be done to fine tune this idea.
Grenada needs to raise minimum wage, last time was 5 years ago. Currently domestic workers: EC $4.50 per hour; security guard: EC $9.00 per hour as examples. Shamefully low considering the cost of living in Grenada. Good pay = reliable and loyal workers. Seems to me there are few rich people and many poor people in Grenada, not much in between. The proletariat keep the county running, while the affluent count their money.
