Wages are remuneration paid to labour in return for service rendered.
According to benham:
“A sum of money paid
under contract by an employment to a worker in exchange for service rendered.”
This is not a better definition, as
it does not include the service of some independent workers such as doctors,
traders etc as they do not work under contract. The better definition of wages
as “remuneration paid to labour in
return for service rendered either under contract or independently”
