LPC Compliance and enforcement of the National Minimum Wage in 2024 report

The Low Pay Commission (LPC) published its Compliance and enforcement of the National Minimum Wage in 2024 report earlier today.

The report looks at the scale and nature of underpayment; its persistence for workers; and the performance of the enforcement regime. It also makes several recommendations to Government on the enforcement system, from ensuring the right information is available for workers and employers to building its data and intelligence on the kinds of non-compliance which exist.

Of particular interest to the HR Community, there’s a section covering compliance and salary sacrifice schemes, noting employers concerns and limitations with the current system.

LPC’s full annual report, covering all the evidence used to set recommendations for minimum wage rates in 2025 is expected in January.
