Tier 1 (一档); Per 鲁政字〔2025〕140号 (issued 2025-09-24, effective 2025-10-01), Shandong's monthly minimum wage is divided into three tiers: 2400 / 2210 / 2020 CNY, with part-time hourly rates of 24 / 22 / 20 CNY. Tier 1 (一档, highest, applies to major cities) = 2400 CNY/month and 24 CNY/hour. This replaces the prior 鲁政字〔2023〕172号 standard (2200/2010/1820 monthly, effective 2023-10-01). Monthly figure applies to full-time workers; hourly figure to part-time. Confirmed by multiple sources including Qingdao HRSS (hrss.qingdao.gov.cn) and Jining HRSS announcements.
