The Living Wage Foundation: how your business can become accredited Click to get info
The Living Wage Foundation launched in 2011. The foundation offers accreditation to employers who voluntarily pay the Real Living Wage to their employees.
Employers are awarded a Living Wage Employer Mark if they:
- pay staff the living wage
- influence other employers they deal with
We gained accreditation by the Living Wage Foundation in July 2017.
We encourage businesses to seriously consider how the Real Living Wage can benefit your business and the wider community.
