Hi Gamo - I've been away for a few days so sorry for not replying sooner.

I'll try and take your questions in order:

- there is nothing set down in law about average wages. We have a national minimum wage in the UK, (HERE: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Employment/Employees/Pay/DG_10027201)
This applies to all jobs, assuming you are over 21 and in full time employment, so there are no further grade requirements (ie a certain wage for a certain job, or more for another etc)

- The average wage in the Uk is about £26,000 a year, but this really has nothing to do with legislation, this is driven by a free market supply and demand economy. A few years ago, plumbers were earning more than junior doctors simply because there was a shortage of plumbers .... nothing to do with the relative worthiness of the jobs.

- There is no legislation in place which says that people should be entitled to travel concessions. People essentially choose where they live and companies should not have to take thr cost risk on this (just because I live further away than you do, why should I get more money just for that?)

- When a company moves locations, there are no specific protections in place for employees, other than the usual unfair dismissal rights etc which are in place. If a person is vital to an organisation, then the company will pay them what it takes to keep them, if they are replaceable (have no scarece skills or specialist knowledge) then they can just hire someone new who lives nearer. Sorry! You may be entitled to redundancy on the grounds that you can;t actually get to work or that it is now economically not worth your while .... but that is the employee's problem, not the company's.
