Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to present the impact of the minimum wage on adjusting and determining the methods used in remunerating workers, regardless of the adopted mechanism: through normative acts adopted by the competent authorities or through collective bargaining between the social partners. Through a historical, teleological, logical and comparative analysis and the approach of the subject, the thesis aims to highlight: (i) the topicality and importance of the minimum wage, proven by the current debates at the EU level on the establishment of a an adequate minimum wage in the Member States; (ii) the variety of its transparent mechanisms of establishment; (iii) the dynamic evolution of its establishment (from a simple temporary measure of national economy improvement to a fundamental instrument of social protection, necessary to insure a decent standard of living for the active population); (iv) the result of the research, under the form of lege ferenda proposals.
