Primark is to increase the hourly wage of its retail assistants across the UK, meaning around 26,000 colleagues will receive an average pay rise of 12%.

Store colleagues across England, Scotland and Wales will see their hourly pay rise to £11 an hour and London-based colleagues will see an increase to £11.51.

The rise will come into effect from April 1. Retail assistants will then be paid around 24% more than they were in 2021.
