Living Wage Employer

Being a Living Wage employer, Society ensures that all our employees earn a wage that meets their basic needs and essential living expenses, including housing, food, and transportation. This commitment goes beyond the legal minimum wage, demonstrating a dedication to the well-being of our staff and their families. 

The benefits of this approach are clear. Paying a Living Wage typically leads to lower staff turnover, reduced absenteeism, and improved employee engagement and productivity. When employees feel valued and financially secure, they tend to be more motivated, loyal, and committed to the company's success.

If you are a company looking to adopt this approach, the first step is to review and adjust your wage structures to ensure all employees are paid a Living Wage. This can be done by collaborating with Living Wage advocacy organisations that provide guidance and certification. Implementing fair pay practices is not only a moral imperative but also a strategic business decision which can help to enhance your reputation, making it more attractive to potential employees, customers, and partners who prioritise ethical business practices. More essentially it fosters a positive work environment, contributes to social equity, and ultimately drives long-term business success.
