  • Help for boroughs on Living wage

    • Reference: 2014/4234
    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2014
    A growing number of London boroughs have rejected extending the living wage to subcontracted workers because of the cost. While I do not support these decisions, and believe the living wage should be mandatory for all employers, I can understand the difficulty it presents boroughs at a time of deep cuts to their budgets, particularly when extending it to social care. Will you therefore lobby government to allocate specific grants to boroughs that become accredited Living Wage Employers to support them all in paying a living wage?
