The apprentice rate was introduced on the same date. From 1st October 2011 the minimum hourly rates are being raised as follows:
Most workers in the UK over school leaving age are legally entitled to be paid at least the NMW and all employers have to pay it to you if you are entitled to it. It makes no difference:
- £5.93 to £6.08 an hour for workers aged 21 and over
- £4.92 to £4.98 an hour for workers aged 18 to 20
- £3.64 to £3.68 an hour for workers aged 16 to 17
- £2.50 to £2.60 an hour for apprentices
Most workers in the UK over school leaving age are legally entitled to be paid at least the NMW and all employers have to pay it to you if you are entitled to it. It makes no difference:
- if you are paid weekly or monthly, by cheque, in cash or in another way
- if you work full time, part time or any other working pattern
- if you work at your employer’s own premises or elsewhere
- what size your employer is
