What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will ensure a review of National Floor Wages from time to time.”
Our Assessment
The statutory basis for a national floor wage has been strengthened through the Code on Wages: when the four Labour Codes came into force on 21 November 2025, a Central-government-fixed floor wage became enforceable, below which no state can set minimum wages, and states are required to issue revised minimum-wage notifications. This institutionalises periodic wage-setting. However, the headline national floor wage figure had remained at an older advisory level for years without a fresh upward revision, so the specific "review from time to time" pledge is structurally enabled but not yet clearly demonstrated through an actual revised floor-wage number. Partial.
