2025 Reference Value Update Report: Living Wage Report for Rural Cameroon
Abstract
This report updates the Anker Living Wage Reference Value for rural Cameroon to 2025. The country average Living Wage for rural areas is composed of a Net Living Wage and mandatory deductions for social security, housing fund, and income tax. Due to regional disparities, this average is likely too low for relatively wealthier regions. Therefore, the upper confidence bound of the Living Wage Reference Value is recommended for banana-producing areas in the West, Southwest, and Littoral (excluding Douala).
