rate than negotiated wages and inflation<\/h2>\n<p>In the first half of 2025, the gross minimum wage for employed persons aged 21 and over was 14.06 euros per hour, and 14.40 euros in the second half of the year. This means that the minimum wage on a year-on-year basis was 33.2 percent higher than it was in 2020. <\/p>\n<p>Over the past five years, the minimum wage has risen at a faster rate than collectively agreed wages and inflation. The main difference was seen in 2023, when the minimum wage rose by 10.15 percent in January, 8.05 percent of which was a special increase. Prior to this, the 2021 coalition agreement had set out plans to raise the minimum wage in incremental steps, in order to make work more financially rewarding. Due to exceptionally high inflation and its impact on disposable income, it was decided to raise the minimum wage at once.<\/p>\n<div class=\"chart-datatable\">\n<div class=\"download-box mt-2

minimum hourly wage in 2025 was 14.23 euros for employed persons aged 21 and over. The comparable average hourly wage earned among all employed persons was 26.59 euros, while the median hourly wage (middle hourly wage) was 23.51 euros. This means that the minimum wage in 2025 was equal to 53.5 percent of the average wage earned and 60.5 percent of the median wage.<\/p>\n<h2>\nDutch minimum wage third highest in the EU<\/h2>\n<p>\nIn the European Union, 22 in 27 countries have a universal minimum wage. In 2025, only Luxembourg and Ireland had a higher minimum wage than the Netherlands, with the minimum hourly wage converted to a monthly amount based on a 36-hour working week. <\/p>\n<p>In recent years, the Dutch minimum wage has been raised significantly. At the beginning of 2025, the minimum wage in the Netherlands was 33 percent higher than it was in 2020. However, this does not mean that the Netherlands is in the lead: in 14 EU member states the minimum wage has increased more significantly over the same period.<\/p>\n<div
