In Sweden people that work in grocery stores earn 17 EUR per hour. And it gets doubled on weekends and holidays, so 34EUR for stocking shelves or being a cashier.

Thoughts?

I do this job but I make 19 yuro / hour.
It is an OK pay considering how little I actually work.
My favourite station is working the self checkout, all you do is just stand there and watch. Maybe like once per hour some boomer needs help paying or you need to verify someone is over 18 years old to buy beer.

The minimum hourly wage in my canton is €22/hr, but I know if people get paid 2X for working on Saturday (only a few supermarkets are open on Sundays anyway, and I assume that people who work Sundays or holidays make more, but I don’t know how much more).

It seems fair to me. High costs of living require high wages. There’s no morally defensible reason for making it impossible for low-skilled workers to support themselves. Their jobs are always going to need doing, and not everyone is going to have (or even to want) the option of advancing to something better. If you make it possible for people near the bottom of the economic ladder to be comfortable there, all the other economic strata benefit too.

Can you work 2x12 hour shifts on saturday and sunday?
That would equal a 48 hour work week while only working twice a week
Sounds good to me

Some right-wing pols claim it is, but they can’t really prove it. But it is worth noting that most cantons don’t have any official minimum wage at all (the proposed introduction of a federal minimum wage has been rejected by referendum twice), but four of the five that now do are border cantons with large cross-border commuter populations.

Whoops, I misspoke—all five of the cantons that have official minimum wages are border cantons. So for right wing types, the minimums protect Swiss jobs from foreign predation, and for people on the left, they’re just pro-worker. In either case it’s still not possible to indisputably demonstrate that foreign day labor has a negative impact on locals. My canton gets something like 35,000 people day-tripping in from Germany and France every day, but most of them aren’t cashiers, and our supermarkets are still hiring all the time.
