Even though international human right instruments and soft laws has recognized fair wage requirements on the state and business entities the legal instruments fail to provide follow up and implementation procedures. Based on empirical evidence, the wages paid at industrial parks are not living wages that suffice to cover basic human needs. To measure whether the wages are living wages and suggest probable living wage Anker methodology was utilized. According to this methodology, the ILO conventions and FDRE labour law the benefits and allowances are not considered as elements of fair wages. The study found that the absence of minimum wages regulation in Ethiopia is a barrier to the realization of Multinational Corporation‟s obligation to fair wages after doing due analysis.
