As an advocate for living wages since 1997, SAI joins the other Global Living Wage Coalition members in welcoming the ILO’s agreement on living wages. This is a milestone in the movement to advance wages and livelihoods for all workers and we look forward to even greater collaboration and momentum around this work.
“The Global Living Wage Coalition (GLWC) commends the ILO’s recognition of the importance of living wage and its efforts to advance discussion and action towards the provision of an adequate living wage for all workers. Decent wages are essential in reducing poverty and inequality, as well as in ensuring a decent and dignified life and in advancing social justice for all workers globally. We welcome the conclusions and recommendations reached by the ILO’s expert meeting, following its tripartite discussions on wage policies and living wage, and its efforts to support future action on these topics.”
