  • Minimum Wages Increases From October 2008

    The rates from 1 October 2008 will be:
    • adults (which means people aged 22 and over), £5.73 an hour
    • workers aged 18-21, £4.77 an hour - the 'development rate'
    • young people (those older than school leaving age and younger than 18; you're under school leaving age until the end of summer term of the school year in which you turn 16), £3.53 an hour
    Who can get the National Minimum Wage?

    Almost everyone who works in the UK is legally entitled to be paid the National Minimum Wage. This is the case even if an employer asks a worker to sign an employment contract at a lower rate of pay. It isn't necessary to be in full-time employment, or to work at an employer's premises. For example, you're entitled to receive the minimum wage if you're:
    • employed by an agency
    • a homeworker
    • a part-time worker
    • a casual worker
    • a pieceworker
    • a worker on a short-term contract
