HMRC reveals absurd excuses for not paying National Minimum WageBy law, workers must be paid at least the minimum wage for their age - here are 10 outrageous excuses employers have used to try and flout the rules. ![]() While the vast majority of employers pay their employees at least the National Minimum Wage, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has today released some of the most absurd excuses used for not paying the legal minimum.

Employers can also contact the Acas Helpline for free help and advice or visit the National Minimum Wage guidance on GOV.UK to find out more.
