This means that a full-time worker on the rate will be over £2750 better off over the year compared to the year the NLW was introduced.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>In April 2018, we estimated that 3,100 workers in Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk would benefit from the 2018 increases in the NLW and NMW, which accounted for 7 per cent of the workforce.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>The Government has not published data on projected coverage of the NLW by constituency from 1 April 2019. However, we estimate that 159,000 workers in Scotland stand to benefit from increases in the NLW or National Minimum Wage (NMW).<\/p><p> <\/p><p>We also expect workers earning above the NLW and NMW to benefit from indirect pay increases. Across the UK, we estimate that at least 20% of workers, which is over 5 million people, will directly or indirectly benefit from April\u2019s uprating. This estimate was made from data published in the Government\u2019s Impact Assessment for the 2019 uprating of the NMW and NLW, and the Office for National Statistics\u2019 Labour Force Survey statistics.<\/p>"}
