For those of you who weren’t able to make the Low Pay Commission’s (LPC) oral evidence session on interns and the National Minimum Wage, there’s still time to submit your views and experiences in writing.
With the Government currently considering new guidance on unpaid work and the National Minimum Wage, and planning to instruct HMRC to target unpaid work in the autumn, now is a good time to remind the LPC of exactly why action is needed so that interns can get their minimum wage rights.
We’re keen to hear about the experiences of current or former Parliamentary interns. All case studies will be anonymous when published. If you’d like to share your experience, please email shelley.phelps@unitepsbranch.org
