National Minimum Wage: Low Pay Commission Report 2025

Summary

The UK's Low Pay Commission addresses the challenge of setting National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage levels that balance fair pay for low-income workers with economic stability and employment impacts, including for youth. Its approach involves independent analysis, extensive stakeholder consultation, and submission of evidence-based recommendations to the government. The recommendations for rates applying from April 2026 have been accepted, with the policy now in the implementation phase.
