If any business is paying less than that or even 13 then they deservedly they need to go out of business because that is slave labor below 13. Heck 15 is slave labor in Bermuda…. So no this is an effort to get rid of cheap labor that has decimated Bermudian jobs and actually hire locals who will spend the money here in there home country.
