## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need the full historical timeline of South African sectoral minimum wages rather than just the current rate. Ideal for compliance audits, trend analysis, wage dispute resolution, or building dashboards showing how specific sectoral wages have evolved over time. Prefer the current-snapshot endpoint if only the latest figures are needed.

## Known failure modes

- No data available yet — empty array if no history recorded
- Payment required (402) if x402 micropayment header is missing or invalid
