The Government is committed to ensuring fair remuneration for workers across the economy. In April 2019, the National Living Wage rate was increased to £8.21 per hour, a rise of 4.9 percent. Over 1.8 million workers benefitted directly from this increase.<\/p>

<\/p>

Employers in all industries are required by law to ensure that all workers due the National Minimum Wage or National Living Wage (NMW) receive it, including for overtime. We take tough action against the minority of employers who underpay the NMW. Since 2015, the Government has doubled HMRC\u2019s enforcement and compliance to £27.4m for 2019/20<\/p>

<\/p>

Anyone who feels they are being underpaid the NMW should contact Acas (www.acas.org.uk<\/a>, 0300 123 1100) for free impartial advice or make a complaint directly to HMRC through their online form.<\/p>

<\/p>

Employers and employees are free to negotiate terms and conditions that go beyond the requirements set out in legislation. It is in employers\u2019 interests to ensure that their reward packages are competitive, in order to retain and develop the staff who are fundamental to their success.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4487", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Kelly Tolhurst"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Rochester and Strood"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Kelly Tolhurst"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-06-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-06-27T14:28:50.43Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "201"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-06-24", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Media: Overtime"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what assessment he has made of the prevalence of unpaid overtime in the TV, film and radio production industries; and what steps his Department is taking to ensure companies in those industries pay their employees for overtime worked.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4573", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dr Rosena Allin-Khan"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Tooting"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Dr Rosena Allin-Khan"} ], "uin" : "268533"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1134102", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Prime Minister"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1134102/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

We have reached agreements with Spain, Portugal and Luxembourg to secure the right for UK nationals in EU member states and EU citizens in the UK to vote and stand as candidates in local elections.

The Help To Claim support is not a contract arrangement with Citizens Advice and Citizens Advice Scotland. They are funded by a grant agreement to deliver the Help To Claim service that runs alongside the national Jobcentre offer, and provides additional and alternative support for claimants who need help making their first claim. This personalised support helps to ensure that there is no need for a claimant to have their claim backdated to the point of contact. Instead, through either Citizens Advice or DWP, claimants are able to access immediate support to make their claim in a timely manner.<\/p>

<\/p>

There are some specific, designated circumstances in which the Department has the ability to backdate a claim, for example if someone is taken ill. However, there is not a legal basis whereby a third party, including Citizens Advice and Citizens Advice Scotland, can \u2018protect the date of claim\u2019 for Universal Credit claimants based on first contact.
