<p>Time spent travelling from one client to another counts as time worked for minimum
wage purposes, and the Government is clear that everyone entitled to the National
Minimum and Living Wage (NMW) should receive it. Since 2015, the Government has almost
doubled the budget for enforcing the NMW to £26.3 million, a record high.</p><p>Anyone
who feels they are not receiving the NMW should contact the Advisory, Conciliation
and Arbitration Service (Acas), who provide free, impartial information and advice
on all aspects of workplace relations and employment law. Where appropriate, Acas
can pass on complaints to HMRC for enforcement; HMRC follow up on all complaints received
from workers about possible NMW underpayment.</p>
