Mexico will raise the minimum daily wage an average of 4.85 percent next year. Minimum wages in Mexico’s three geographic zones will be raised on Jan. 1, 2010, the National Minimum Wage Commission stated.

The
minimum wage in Zone A, which includes Mexico City and several cities on the U.S. border including Tijuana, Mexicali, Tecate and Ensenada, will increase to 57.46 pesos ($4.45) a day from 54.80 pesos this year. In Zone B, wages will rise to 55.84 pesos ($4.32) daily from 53.26 pesos. The zone includes some of Mexico’s largest cities such as Monterrey and Guadalajara.
