The Living Wage Dividend: Maximising The Local Economic Benefits Of Paying A Living Wage

This report seeks to take forward the work of the Foundation's Living Wage Places' initiative, focusing on how to maximise the benefits of the Living Wage in towns, cities and city-regions across the UK. Using evidence-based assumptions, the report examines and quantifies how much individuals gain, how that wage uplift is paid for and what the local economic impact is likely to be based on moving 25% of low paid workers up to the Living Wage.
