gross pay OR net pay
We don't usually use gross and net together.
Gross means the full amount he is paid by his employers before tax.
Net means the amount he ends up with after tax.
So you need to look at the context. If there's another amount mentioned which is less than this, then this is the gross pay. If there's another amount mentioned which is more than this, then this is the net pay.

gross minimum wage
'net' also means 'minimum', as in 'net price', which is a minimum price (Ref. Van Dale dictionary English-Dutch). Though in the context of salary it is usually 'wage'. But perhaps this helps?
