Living Wage Foundation
Non-profit Organizations
The Living Wage is an independent movement of employers who believe a fair day’s work should mean a fair day's pay.
About us
The Living Wage Foundation is the organisation at the heart of the Living Wage movement in the UK. The Living Wage Foundation does three things: Accreditation: We offer accreditation to employers that pay the living wage, or those committed to an agreed timetable of implementation, by awarding the ‘Living Wage Employer’ mark. Intelligence: We provide advice and support to employers implementing the Living Wage including best practice guides; case studies from leading employers; model procurement frameworks; access to specialist legal and HR advice. Influence: We provide a forum for leading employers to publicly back the Living Wage. We work with six Principal Partners, Trust for London, KPMG, Linklaters, Resolution Foundation, Save the Children and Queen Mary University of London, who bring financial and strategic support to the work.

How are the Philippines going about implementing a Living Wage, and what can we learn from worker-led movements globally? 🌍 Today we launched our 'Implementing a Living Wage in the Philippines: A worker-led approach' report which shares the approach being taken in the Philippines to implement a Living Wage through a worker-led approach driven by the NFL union working alongside other key players in the Philippines. The report also looks at the UK’s worker-led approach to developing the Living Wage campaign, initially driven by Citizens UK through community organising and listening to the experiences of low-paid workers. Interested in the learnings? The report also shares a toolkit to help others adopt a worker-led approach to developing a national Living Wage movement.

“Auto-enrolment is definitely a positive step in the right direction, but for most people, if they’re only saving 8% of their salary a year, they are probably not going to be able to afford the standard of living they are currently on.” Adam Barlow from the Good Things Foundation reflects on the need for employers to lead the way on pensions and become a Living Pension Employer, so their staff can have secure financial futures ahead of them. Hear more about our Living Pension standard and employer accreditation on the Living Wage Foundation’s pilot podcast.
