Japan’s national weighted average of ¥1,121/hour is about ¥15/hour lower than this Greece’s.
Greece comes out to about €6.19/hour, or ¥1,136.04/hour at the ECB reference rate of €1 = ¥183.46 on 20 March 2026. Japan’s prefectural rates are the official FY2025 regional minimum wages from MHLW.
Greece’s minimum wage is set to be 920 euros per month in April 1st. I used that value multiplied by 14 and divided by 12 since Greece has 14 wages per year, not 12.
