The National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage rates will increase on 1 April. In addition to the new rates, the age from which workers become eligible for the National Living Wage will be lowered. From 1 April all workers aged 23 and over must be paid the National Living Wage or above.
If you haven’t already, you should:
- Find out the new rates of pay on GOV.UK.
- Ensure you are ready to make the necessary changes to your (and/or your clients’) payroll arrangements.
HMRC is offering live webinars in March to explain the upcoming rate rises, including when exactly you should start paying the new rates.
