The retailer Monsoon Accessorize has topped the government's latest name-and-shame list of companies who failed to pay the national minimum wage (NMW). The 115 companies on the list neglected to pay more than £389, 000 to workers between them, the government said. Monsoon - the largest firm on the list - is in the number one slot by some distance for failing to pay £104, 508 to 1, 438 workers. The firm said it had taken action to address the shortfall in wages. The NMW rose to £6.70 an hour on 1 October for workers aged 21 and over. The top five defaulters were: 1.Monsoon Accessorize Ltd - £104, 508 to 1, 438 workers 2.Tyne & Wear Riding for the Disabled Association - £27, 152 to six workers 3.Project Security UK Ltd - £23, 857 to 18 workers 4.Carl Keith Salons Ltd - £20, 535 to five workers 5.Cornwall Glass & Glazing Ltd - £14, 254 to nine workers Monsoon Accessorize's wages dipped below the minimum because it had a policy of offering staff discounted fashions to wear at work. The cost was taken off their wages, taking them below the legal threshold. The company says the issue came to light when the tax authorities reviewed its payroll system, it took prompt action to end it and that basic wages have been raised to prevent any repeat. 'Robust enforcement' Business Minister Nick Boles said: "Employers that fail to pay the minimum wage hurt the living standards of the lowest paid and their families. "Next April we will introduce a new National Living Wage, which will mean a £900-a-year pay rise for someone working full-time on the minimum wage, and we will enforce this equally robustly." A large firm with thousands of employees has no excuse for not having proper systems in place to ensure staff get their legal wages Frances O'Grady, TUC Trade union body the TUC welcomed the publication of the list, but estimated that only about a quarter of offenders were being caught. "Today's list of offenders is only the tip of the iceberg, " said TUC general secretary
