Given the economic uncertainty arising from the COVID-19 situation, the National Wages Council (NWC), a tripartite body made up of employer, employee and government representatives¹, will convene earlier than usual this year, on 17 March 2020, to develop its annual guidelines² on wage and employment-related issues.
