Understanding the UK National Minimum Wage 2023
Ever since the National Minimum Wage Act was implemented in 1998, the minimum wage in the UK has gradually increased from £3.60 to £10.42 per hour for those aged 23 and over. Despite these increases, inflation has continuously undercut the value of these earnings, exacerbating the cost-of-living concerns across the UK in 2023.
| Rate | Old 2022 Rate | New 2023 Rate | Increase By % |
| National Living Wage | £9.50 | £10.42 | 9.7% |
| 21-22 Year Old Rate | £9.18 | £10.18 | 10.8% |
| 18-20 Year Old Rate | £6.83 | £7.49 | 9.6% |
| 16-17 Year Old Rate | £4.81 | £5.28 | 9.7% |
Workers grappling with escalating expenses and financial instability in the wake of COVID’s impact often find themselves pondering, ‘When will the minimum wage in the UK increase again?’ This query has gained more urgency with the spiralling price hikes in recent times.
