All workers on minimum wage should see their hourly pay upped to £15 amid the cost of living crisis, the Trades Union Congress (TUC) has said.
The TUC said that the new wage should be put in place “as soon as possible” and that it should apply to workers of all ages, putting an end to the different wage tiers for workers aged between 16 and 22. They have now called on the Government to deliver a plan that will help boost pay for workers, The Mirror reports .
The TUC launched their ‘Fight For 15’ UK campaign on Tuesday, writing on Twitter : “Millions of low-paid workers are being pushed to the brink by eye-watering bills and soaring prices. Yet companies are making record profits and handing massive pay rises to those at the very top.
