Around five million British workers are not paid enough to cover their basic needs, according to a report. Shops and restaurants are among the worst offenders, say campaigners.
Sales and retail assistants are the most likely to earn below the living wage. About 750,000 such workers earn close to the minimum.
"Many people are working two and three jobs just to make ends meet," said Rhys Moore, director of the Living Wage Foundation.
