YOUNG workers are missing out on up to £6,300 a year because they are not entitled to the so-called national living wage (NLW), according to a report published today.
Some 1.2 million people under the age of 25, more than half of them women, earn less than the minimum amount the government has stated is needed to live on, the Young Women’s Trust says.
The national minimum wage was rebranded the NLW by former Tory chancellor George Osborne under David Cameron’s government.
