To create an equal minimum wage for all ages.
The Government's National Living Wage does not apply to those under the age of 25, who can be paid as little as £3.90 per hour if they are an apprentice or £4.35 otherwise.
Some people under 25 are parents like myself I am 20 with a 2 year old girl living on £6.15 an hour working full time when at the end of the month after paying bills and food you are left with barely anything for a day out let alone enough to go on holiday once every two years.
Why should I be paid much less then my other colleagues for doing the same job and the same amount of hours pay should be equal.
