The Ministry of Defence (MOD) does not hold information on the proportion of contracted organisations that pay the National Living Wage. However, employers, including those involved in contracts placed by the MOD are required to abide by applicable employment legislation such as the National Living Wage. MOD policy is to include a contract condition in its contracts which reinforces this.
