PUTRAJAYA: Introducing a progressive wage model will improve employee productivity and increase profits for employers, says Human Resources Minister V. Sivakumar.

“(The progressive wage model) will definitely be helpful for employers because they want to maximise profit. This will encourage employees to increase productivity, which, in effect, will increase profit,” he told reporters after his ministry’s Rahmah Mesra Deepavali event here yesterday.
