The Office of the Secretary of State for Wales has not contracted any work in the last three years to a business named in round 18 of the National Minimum Wage Naming Scheme.<\/p>
<\/p>
All employers need to pay their staff correctly. Paying the minimum wage is not optional, it\u2019s the law. Under the National Minimum Wage Naming Scheme, employers who have previously broken minimum wage law can be publicly named. The Department for Business and Trade follows a clear and thorough process allowing firms to make representations against being named if they meet our published criteria.<\/p>
