Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, when the next National Minimum Wage Naming Scheme list for companies failing to pay National Minimum Wage will be published.

Publicly naming employers who do not comply with the rules remains an important part of our enforcement and compliance toolkit. It clearly demonstrates that it is never acceptable to underpay workers and that employers who do will be held responsible.

To date we have named around 2,500 employers, covering around £20.8 million in arrears and £24.1 million in penalties. The Government last named 208 employers on 8 December 2021, including some of the UK’s biggest household names. The next National Minimum Wage Naming Scheme list will be published in due course.
