Working hours

I work 80 hours a month and get paid £590.
Does this sound like I’m being paid to little for 80 hours work as a 17 year old

I’m not complaining but in my head I thought I’d get more
How much do you get per hour

How much should you get paid an hour?
£590 devided by 80 is 7.37. If you do get paid 7.37 an hour then thats a good wage for a 17 year old.
That’s a damn good job man. Some work 100 hours and get paid less than 600 pounds. Keep the job

I get paid 7.38 and hour but I just rounded the £590 down.

I’m also in sixth from Monday to Friday so I feel like I might struggle with those hours

That is mega good for a 17 year old. Dont complain about that.
The minimum wage for under under 18 is £4.20

Yes you are.
Not many people your age can say they get paid that much.
