Living Wage Accreditation

Post in News on 12 June 2017

Only the real Living Wage is independently calculated each year based on what employees and their families need to live. It is an hourly rate that provides a benchmark for employers that voluntarily choose to ensure their staff earn a wage that meets their cost of living.

On becoming accredited, employers are awarded the Living Wage Employer Mark, a symbol of responsible pay. This mark is a badge of honour.

By displaying the Living Wage Employer Mark, employers can signal to others their commitment to paying a wage that is enough to live on.

Paying the Living Wage is good for business, good for the individual and good for society.
