National Minimum Wage rates increase in October


The National Minimum Wage will increase from 1st October 2009 to;

  • £5.80 (currently £5.73) per hour for adults (workers aged 22 and over)
  • £4.83 (currently £4.77) per hour for workers aged 19 to 21 inclusive
  • £3.57 (currently £3.53) per hour for young people.

In a recent court success for HM Revenue & Customs it was confirmed that employers must pay their employees at least the National Minimum Wage regardless of any tips, gratuities, service charges or cover charges if they are not paid by the employer to workers through the employer’s payroll.
