They work FOR daily wages. They work to get that wage every day.
Not they work upon the daily wage.
Though I understand 'on' is alright in British English. But not my American English.

People don't work on wages. They work for wages. But even with the right word, it's still awkward.
They're paid a daily wage for their work.
Their wages are paid daily.
