As of Saturday (April 1), millions of workers in the UK will receive a pay rise as the National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage are both increased.
The uplift in wages will benefit around two million people. For full-time employees, this could mean up to an extra £1,820 a year.
Workers in sectors such as retail, hospitality and cleaning and maintenance will particularly benefit from the rise. Apprentices will also get a 9.7% increase to their minimum hourly pay, with 21-22 year-olds seeing an immediate 10.9% rise.
