From April 2016, the government will introduce the National Living Wage for all workers age 25 and above, so is your business ready?
This will be rolled out in stages with the first increase of £7.20 an hour from April this year growing to £9 per hour by 2020. The national minimum wage of £ 6.70 will continue to apply for those aged 21 to 24. Now is the time to check whether you have the right tools in place to ensure a smooth transition. Check your compliance terms, update your hourly rates and IT system, and contact your clients to inform them of the changes ahead.
