hi anish SALARY : means which is receiving by office staff on monthly basis WAGES: means who is receiving remuneration on daily basis and hourly basis

Hi,
A wage is based on hours worked. Employees who receive a wage are often called "non-exempt." A salary is an amount paid for a particular job, regardless of hours worked, and these employees are called "exempt."

The difference between the two is carefully defined by the type of position and the kinds of tasks that employees perform. In general, exempt employees include executives, administrative and professional employees, and others . These groups are not covered by minimum wage provisions. Non-exempt employees are covered by minimum wage as well as other provisions.

Hi, Salary is a fixed periodical payment paid to a person for regular work or services, whereas a wage is usually paid by the day or week for work or services which are of a more irregular nature

Naresh has hit the nail on its head. His definition is very apt and succint.
Actualy there is no difference... salary implies White Collared employees whereas Wages are attributed to the workers or the Blue Collar employees.
Cheers!!!
