The main reason of attention paid to the workers ’wages as well as theirs protection by the law can be seen in the social reality, which implies that the lawmaker should support the poor ones, the workers, and protect them from employer who has wealth and power. In Iran's legal system, the worker's wages and so ensuring are among the important issues to which the legislator paid special attention.
