Nine businesses across Wales have been caught failing to pay their employees minimum wage with some of them keeping back huge amounts of money.<\/p>\n
The UK Government has named the businesses in Wales on a nationwide UK list of companies which have been reprimanded and made to repay their staff in full and pay hefty fines.<\/p>\n
The businesses in Wales are Solo Services Group Limited in Swansea<\/a>, Bridgetime Transport Limited in Cwmbran, CLIC Limited in Cwmbran, DF 99 Limited in Cardiff<\/a>, Tir Prince Raceway Limited in Abergele, KK Fine Foods Limited in Deeside, Janath (UK) Limited in Cardigan, CDT Sidoli Limited in Welshpool, and Eleri W Evans in Caernarfon. For the biggest stories in Wales first, sign up to our daily newsletter<\/a>.<\/p>\n This is what happened at each business:<\/p>\n The national living wage – also known as the minimum wage – in the UK is \u00a312.21 per hour for workers aged 21 and over, \u00a310 per hour for workers 18 to 20, and \u00a37.55 for workers under 18 and apprentices.<\/p>\n Following the publication of the latest list business secretary Peter Kyle said: \u201cEvery worker deserves a fair day\u2019s pay for a fair day\u2019s work and this government will not tolerate rogue employers who short-change their staff.<\/p>\n “I know that no employer wants to end up on one of these lists. But our plan to make work pay cracks down on those not playing by the rules. This ensures a level playing field where all businesses pay what they owe whilst workers receive the boost to their living standards they deserve.\u201d<\/p>\n Low pay commissioner chair Baroness Philippa Stroud said: \u201cWe are pleased the government is keeping up momentum with the publication of today\u2019s naming round.<\/p>\n “It is vital that businesses understand the mistakes which can lead to underpayment, and that workers know where to go to enforce their rights. Continuing to raise the profile of the NMW enforcement system will give the Fair Work Agency a solid foundation when it comes into operation next year.\u201d<\/p>\n TUC general secretary Paul Nowak added: “It’s right that ministers name and shame companies who fail to pay the minimum wage. There is no excuse for workers being cheated out of money they’re owed. It\u2019s bad for workers, families and the economy.<\/p>\n “Every pound taken from a worker\u2019s pocket is a pound that could have been spent in local shops, caf\u00e9s and high streets. That’s why the government’s new Fair Work Agency must be properly resourced – it has a vital role to play in ensuring employers play by the rules.”<\/p>\n\n
