Chef's Wages In The Uk

[James53]

How much per hour would a Thai chef get in the UK if the chef was a UK national.

Good for a start...init..

Calculating the National Minimum Wage: the basics Almost all workers are entitled to be paid at least the National Minimum Wage (NMW).

To check if you are being paid the NMW rate you need to know your pay reference period and what elements of pay count towards the National Minimum Wage.

How to check your pay

Your average hourly pay has to be at least the National Minimum Wage (NMW), worked out over a period called the ‘pay reference period’.

I'm guessing a chef in a decent restaurant would be on 4-500GBP a week, theyre certainly not on minimum wage.

In my local restaurant, I think they get £250+ plus free food and accomodation.

Does £10 per hour seem about right if no accomodation provided.
