Well, if it's good enough for Sweden, I don't see why not.


Sweden has de facto minimums specified per industry, so not really comparable.


Best I could find is that unions in a given industry bargain for their wage. There is no minimum wage law that I could find. From what I read, it seemed to be the consensus of the unions that minimum wage law might actually hurt their bargaining power by driving wages down.

Am I missing something? There's a huge difference between negotiated wages between two parties (one being a union), and a law mandating a wage.
