Brief Description of Requirement The Low Pay Commission (LPC) invites tenders for an examination of the impact of the minimum wage on earnings and wage differentials.
The aim of this study is to assess the impact of the minimum wage on hourly and weekly earnings, and assess whether, and to what extent, wage differentials have been squeezed.
The LPC is also keen to gauge the extent to which the NLW has become established as the 'going rate'.
In addition, this project would ideally provide an analysis of whether wages and differentials reflect skills and productivity differences by sector.
