Should I be paid the National Minimum Wage?
The minimum wage a worker should be paid will depend on their age and whether they are an apprentice. Almost all workers are entitled to be paid minimum wage and where an employer fails to do so works could bring a claim against them. It does not matter how small your employer is, if they do not pay you at least the National Minimum Wage they are breaking the law.
Workers must be school leaving age, which is usually 16 or over, in order to qualify for Minimum Wage. Any contract with an employee that includes an hourly rate below the minimum wage is not legally binding. Workers including part - time workers, agency workers , casual labourers are entitled to the Minimum Wage.
Employment Law Glasgow can help and advise on all aspects of employment law as it relates to pay, such as PAYE, Sick pay and the National Minimum Wage. The National Minimum Wage is the amount by law an employer must pay an employee. The Government website provides the most up to date information on minimum wage rates, and you can calculate how much you should be paid by using their minimum wage calculators. There are separate calculators for workers and employees, so it is important to understand your employment status before choosing which calculator to use.
