The Foundation Living Wage is an independently-calculated wage, based on what people need to get by (it is currently £8.75 per hour). We encourage all employers that can afford to pay this higher rate, to do so, to ensure their employees earn a wage that meets the costs of living, not just the government minimum. Are you an employer who supports the Foundation Living Wage? You can become accredited through the Living Wage Foundation @ https://www.livingwage.org.uk/become-a-living-wage-employer .
