However, following the introduction of Real Time Information, ASHE now includes the majority of those earning below the lower earnings limit.<\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p>The HMRC paper \u201cNational Minimum Wage compliance in the social care sector\u201d (November 2013) looked at, amongst other things, the issue of unpaid travel time in compliance. It found that unpaid travel time was not the main cause of non-compliance in the sector.<\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p>We take non-compliance in the care sector very seriously, and to proactively tackle non-compliance HMRC have collaborated with care sector representative bodies to improve understanding of compliance risks and design controls within payroll systems that prevent workers being underpaid the minimum wage.<\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p>The Government is committed to increasing compliance with minimum wage legislation and effective enforcement of it.
