Updated 139 companies have named on a new list from the Government as having breached National Minimum Wage rules A NEWPORT firm is among five in Wales and almost 140 across the UK, to have been ‘named and shamed’ by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, for failing to pay the minimum wage. Smart Solutions (Recruitment) Limited, based at Langstone, failed to pay £1,152.09 to 90 workers, according to the department, which has issued the latest set of details of companies that are being called out by the Government for short-changing their employees. Business minister Paul Scully says the list should be a “wake-up call” to rogue bosses.
