Multi-year framework

Ghana’s 2026 national daily minimum wage is GH¢21.77, following a 9 percent increase from GH¢19.97 in 2025. That rate applies from 1 January to 31 December 2026.

The 2027 figure is about 15% higher than the 2026 rate, while the 2028 amount is about 15% above the 2027 level.

Based on 27 working days, the 2027 wage is roughly GH¢676 per month, compared with about GH¢588 on the 2026 rate. Using 26 working days, the monthly figures are approximately GH¢651 in 2027 and GH¢748 in 2028.

The increase comes amid debate over whether Ghana’s minimum wage provides a liveable income. In 2025, the TUC called for a living wage framework that would account for essential costs including housing, healthcare, education and transportation.

President John Dramani Mahama assented to the Income Tax (Amendment) Act, 2026, on August 26, 2026. The law exempts people earning the national minimum wage or below from income tax.

The NTC’s call for the NDMW to be tax exempt is consistent with that legislation. The tripartite partners also reaffirmed their commitment to improving living standards, raising productivity, protecting employment, maintaining business competitiveness and strengthening industrial harmony.
