Though I don't know that many places actually pay 21-25 year olds the 50p less an hour or whatever it is, I think MOST places at least have a flat wage structure at 21+.
It's one of the very few things my old place of work did right. Obviously you had to be 18 to work there at all, but then the wage structure was the same whether you were 18 or 50 (in the same role).

My daughter is going to be turning 21 in a couple of months and I'm not actually sure if they will pay her more then, I don't think so but I'm not 100% sure, i must ask her that, as far as I know though 18 up is the same
