The new finance minister George Osborne's new deal is forcing HM Revenue and Customs, the Royal tax and customs administration, to conduct a thorough investigation of British businesses in the past year, with emphasis on tax avoidance and worker treatment. In Britain, the minimum hourly wage for a 21 year old worker is 6.5. According to HMRC, the company failed to meet the requirement.

British employment relations minister Jo Swinson, such as the H&M group's violation of the minimum wage standard is illegal. Once the employer violates this regulation, the government has the right to take tough measures to impose penalties, public humiliation and help workers pay for their employers.

The British Independent newspaper said that the British government imposed a slight fine on employers, which failed to achieve the desired results. For example, a fine is a fine of only 1400 pounds for employers who violate wage standards, which is nothing to do with money in terms of the H&M profit of 600 million pounds a year.

However, the British government is discussing the improvement of fines and trying to promote the small business bill. The fine will be fined according to the number of injured employees. Each person will be fined 20000 pounds, and there may be no definite conclusion on the measures taken by rogue employers to impose an illegal fine of 3 million -1220 per unit.
