The Living Wage Foundation has just published a report which shows that 1 in 7 third sector workers are paid below the Real Living Wage (£9.90 per hour across the UK and £11.05 in London). Their report ‘All work and low pay?’ can be read at https://www.livingwage.org.uk/news/low-paid-third-sector-workers-risk-being-swept-away-cost-living-crisis and is timely, especially as people’s finances are under pressure, and charities are suggesting that this will lead to a drop in their income.
The report also shows that part-time jobs are three times more likely to be paid at below the Real Living Wage.
