Rejected petition Equal Minimum Wage
More details
People under 21 are still getting paid less than their older co-workers. This often means that a business will employ a younger person so that they don't have to pay them as much. We feel that this is wrong and request that the Government should set ONE fixed minimum wage for everyone.
