Kenyan workers will see wage adjustments following the formalization of a 12% increase in general minimum wages and a 15% increase for agricultural workers. Labour Cabinet Secretary Alfred Mutua signed the legal notices implementing these changes, aiming to cushion Kenyans from the rising cost of living.

• The new wage structure will affect employee earnings across various sectors once gazetted.
• Key figures involved include Labour Cabinet Secretary Alfred Mutua, President William Ruto, the Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE), and COTU Secretary General Francis Atwoli.
• There are divided opinions, with the FKE stating they will only adjust minimum wages, while COTU insists the 12% is a general adjustment.
