Dominica operates a tiered minimum wage scale that businesses are expected to pay employees according to how much the business is valued.
Dominica sits north of Martinique and South of Guadeloupe in a belt of French-influenced islands in the heart of the Caribbean. Often Confused with the Dominican Republic, Dominica is much smaller in terms of population and economic output.
The island has been traditionally reliant on agriculture and sadly predisposed to hurricanes which constantly place this industry into peril. Since the turn of the century, Dominica has seen a groundswell of interest from tourists looking to explore the natural beauty of the island. There is also a burgeoning offshore financial services sector driving some growth in the country.
