Our Commitment as a Living Wage Employer
We are pleased to announce that Hey Me has recently pledged to be a Living Wage Employer.
As we take this key step, we wish to share more about what it means to be a Living Wage Employer and the positive impact it has.
What is the Living Wage?
The Living Wage is an independently calculated hourly rate that takes into account the real cost of living. It differs from the government-mandated minimum wage, which may not provide employees with enough income to meet their basic needs. As a Living Wage Employer, we have committed to paying all our employees, including contractors and subcontractors, a wage that meets or exceeds the Living Wage rate.
Why should you also become a Living Wage Employer?
By becoming a Living Wage Employer, you are not only helping to set the ethical industry standard, but there are a range of other benefits for you and your community.
The Living Wage allows our team members to focus on their professional growth and well-being without the burden of financial stress, ultimately fostering a happier and more motivated workforce.
The Living Wage commitment helps local economies thrive, as employees stimulate growth by actively participating in the economy.
Not only that but embracing the Living Wage approach enhances business’s ability to attract and retain top talent as it indicates a commitment to staff welfare.
We are committed to fostering a supportive and positive workplace and firmly believe that this commitment helps our team and business thrive. We invite other businesses to also make this step and drive positive change across the entire business landscape.
