<p>Pay for civil servants below the senior civil service is delegated to individual
departments to determine. The 46,000 civil servants that earn below the voluntary
living wage rates is an estimate using a range of data sources, as not all the required
information is held centrally. This includes the 2019 Civil Service Statistics data,
estimates from individual departments, and estimates of contracted working hours in
each department.</p><p>On this basis, as of 31 March 2019 the overall number of civil
servants based in London earning below the London Living wage (£10.55) stood at approximately
1,500. The number based outside London and earning below the voluntary living wage
outside London (£9.00), stood at approximately 44,000.</p><p>Detailed information
