Martin Lewis has issued a reminder to all those on minimum wage to check if they’re eligible for hundreds of pounds of extra cash. It comes as the national minimum wage increases by almost £1 an hour today (Saturday, April 1).
Around 1.7million workers will receive a pay boost thanks to the increase. It means that an individual aged 23 and over will see their wages go up from £9.50 to £10.32 following the rise, MyLondon reports.
The rate increases apply to everyone, even if you’re not paid hourly. For example, if you are 23 or older and working 35 hours a week, your annual salary must be at least £17,290.
