Why a Living Wage?
A living wage can be defined as the wage required to keep a family above the poverty line. The main idea behind the living wage concept is to provide workers with a level of income that would allow for an acceptable standard of living. This would include being able to afford food, healthcare, housing, utilities and some degree of recreation.
