The Living Wage Campaign

The Living Wage Campaign aims to ensure workers earn enough to meet the true cost of living, including essentials like housing, food, and transportation. Unlike the legal minimum wage, which often falls short of covering basic needs, the campaign advocates for employers to voluntarily pay wages that reflect real living expenses. Its goal is to improve quality of life, reduce poverty, and promote fair treatment for workers, fostering a more equitable economy. The campaign often encourages businesses, organizations, and government bodies to adopt and support living wage standards.
