Will my pay rise by 3.9%?
The 3.9% rise applies to the National Living Wage, not all wages. Your actual pay rise depends on your employer and sector. If you earn above the current National Living Wage of £12.71, your employer isn't legally obliged to increase your pay by this amount, though many do to stay competitive.
