Minimum Wage vs. Smart Outsourcing — Why Businesses Choose Odyssey Outsourcing
At the time of publishing, the UK National Living Wage is £12.71 per hour.
But £12.71 isn’t necessarily what an employee actually costs a business.
Once you factor in additional employment costs such as:
• Employer’s National Insurance
• Workplace pension contributions
• Paid annual leave
• Sick pay and other employment costs
• Software, equipment and administrative overhead
The real cost of employing someone can quickly rise to £16+ per productive working hour.
There is another option.
At Odyssey Outsourcing, we provide professional administrative and operational support for just:
£14 per hour
✅ No employer National Insurance
✅ No workplace pension contributions
✅ No paid holiday entitlement
✅ No additional equipment or software costs
✅ No long-term staffing commitment
