Minimum wage increase ‘just the start’, minister vows
Cayman’s new employment and immigration minister on Wednesday said the $2.75-an-hour increase in the minimum wage to $8.75 was just the start of a bigger plan to lift more people out of poverty.

“This decision is about more than numbers. It’s about pulling our people out of poverty and into the middle class.
