The Federal Government says it will increase the minimum wage for workers in Australia on 457 visas to help ensure they are not exploited.

Under the changes, temporary skilled workers on the visa's minimum wage will receive a 3.8 per cent pay increase, taking the standard minimum salary to about $43,500.
