  • Increases in employee productivity as a result of Living Wage employees contributing a higher level of effort and an openness to changing job roles.
    
    
  • Cost-saving opportunities from increasing staff retention and reducing sickness absence.
    
    
  • Improved levels of morale, motivation and commitment from staff across the pay distribution.
