Four-part Webinar Series

Living Wages in Practice
 Turning ambitions into actions

A living wage is essential to ensuring that workers can afford a decent standard of living for themselves and their families. Yet, despite growing recognition of its importance, translating commitments into meaningful action remains a challenge for many companies.​

​

Organized in collaboration with IDH, this four-part webinar series takes participants on a practical journey, from understanding the concept of a living wage and why it matters, to exploring how companies can advance living wages across their own operations, including with their contracted workers, and throughout their global supply chains.

​​

What to expect

  • Building step by step: each session explores living wages from a different perspective and progressively builds your understanding and ability to take action

  • Real case studies: practitioners from a diverse range of companies share their experiences in every session

  • Expert insights and actionable approaches: to help you identify opportunities, address challenges and move from commitments to implementation​

 

Whether your company is at the beginning of its living wage journey or looking to strengthen existing efforts, this series offers an opportunity to deepen your understanding, exchange experiences and identify practical next steps.
