Answer 1

Owners are not required to pay it to foreign workers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum wage policy should offer protection to all employees. The policy should not discriminate against any group of workers, such as the youth, women, or immigrants. The wage policy applies in all types of contractual agreements. The policy seeks to protect the most vulnerable category of workers.

Only a few groups are excluded from the policy and with reasons. They include workers in the informal economy and domestic workers.
