I think it must be the biggest industry in the country to pay below a living wage
Or is it just that most are clowns who do not and never will know or known any thing better or any thing that comes near it in there life
What’s it like gaffer your not given me enough hours and thats after been up to 65 hours already so he or she do more hours so he or she drop hourly rate to way below a living wage
Do nobody think what is happening slave labour
National living wage is just over £9/hour in london. And just under £8/hour for northerners.
If you are earning less than this go and get a job for a big paying firm like Stobarts.
Look at the time it must be troll o’clock 
If you’re working for less than the living wage there is nobody to blame other than yourself.

No it isn’t. Even if you’re on salary the pay you get for the hours you do has to at least meet minimum wage.
The national living wage (£7.83 at present) is a legal minimum, and should be reported to HMRC so they can get there correct pay. Keep your pay slips if you have them.

Don’t get confused. The national minimum wage is regulated by legislation, the national living wage is a voluntary option chosen by some of the more enlightened businesses.
