How do minimum wage adjustments impact inflation and overall wage growth?

I’m curious about the macro‑economic relationship between raising the minimum wage and the broader wage structure. Specifically, does increasing the floor tend to trigger higher inflation, or can it stimulate productivity that offsets price rises? How do different economies balance these effects, and what factors determine whether the wage hike leads to sustainable wage growth versus a wage‑price spiral? Would love to hear perspectives and any data‑driven insights.
