Real Minimum Wages At Constant Prices

Real hourly and annual minimum wages are calculated first by deflating the series using the consumer price index taking 2022 as the base year then converted into common currency units 1) US dollars (USD) and 2) USD using Purchasing Power Parities (PPPs) for private consumption expenditures in 2022.
