A poll of British employers on the statutory minimum wage to be introduced in 1999 shows little strong resistance to the policy. More than 8 in 10 respondents indicated a preference for a level between 3.5 and 4 pounds per hour. Overall, survey participants expect a level of about 3.75. Respondents faced with the additional costs the policy will most commonly try to raise productivity and improve working practices.
