We encourage local businesses to pay all employees the Real Living Wage. By joining the campaign, you’re joining a vibrant community of over 975 businesses working towards making Brighton & Hove a Living Wage city.
What is a real Living Wage?
The real Living Wage is different to the government’s national minimum wage; it’s independently calculated based on the actual cost of living. People often think that the Living Wage just applies to employees paid hourly, but it’s for salaried staff too. The current Living Wage is £13.45 per hour – £26,227.50 per annum (based on a 37.5 hour week). The rates for the Living Wage are reviewed annually.
We support and encourage local businesses to commit to paying their employees the Living Wage.
