I worked 10 hours yesterday and got paid 30 quid surely this is low? I'm 21 btw. Should I complain or just let it go? I was doing groundswork if that makes any difference.

If you work for an actual company [as opposed to an individual person, Government programme or shadowing] then this is way too low.
You should be on around 65 GBP for that amount of work.

It's says 2015 because they review the minimum wage of October each year.

10 hours x £6.70 = £67 - 20% tax = you should be getting paid around £50.
Although if your boss is paying you cash is a complete dickhead. I work in that field of work also, £30 for a day is taking the piss... £50 minimum a day.

You should defiantly have words with him about your pay, because I know I would not get out of bed for that.
Also being a grounds worker is hard work...

So yes... You should complain.

Good luck!

If this was cash in hand then nothing really can be done ..
If it went through the books (legal work) then I certainly wouldn't let it pass.

That's really low bro. You should've got around 70 dollars.

That's a low wage. The minimum should be £50. I would definitely say something.
