The adult wage increases from 6.31 to 6.50 today, by 10p to 5.13 for 18 to 20-year-olds, by 7p to 3.79 for 16 to 17-year-olds and by 5p to 2.73 for ap- prentices. The Resolution Foundation think-tank said 1.2million workers are on the legal minimum, compared with 600,000 when it was introduced in 1999. The number of employees earning within 5p of the hourly rate has reached its highest level, said the report. The study also said an increasing number of workers are stuck for long periods on the minimum wage, showing the importance of increasing its value as well as finding better ways of pay progression. Matthew Whittaker, chief economist at the Resolution Foundation, said: More than a million employees on the minimum wage will get a three per cent pay rise today. For many this will be their first real pay rise in six years. The minimum wage used to al- ways rise faster than inflation but the recession has blown it way off course. Todays minimum wage is no higher in real terms than it was almost a decade ago. Years of big increases in the mini- mum wage before the recession pulled the rate closer to median earnings and brought millions more workers within close proximity of the rate. The recent collapse in earnings looks to have ac- celerated this trend. The increased stickiness of jobs on the minimum wage is a cause for concern, not least for those unable to escape very low pay. Tackling the growth and persistence of low pay is a key test of whether this will be a shared recovery. The think-tank said that if the minimum wage had continued on its pre-recession course, it would be set to reach 10.83 an hour by 2019. Labour has pledged to increase the rate to 8 over the next five years. We leave good advertising to the professionals.
