01 November 2016 - Living Wage Week At Trent Refractories Independently Calculated Fair Wages

Living Wage Week takes place each year during the first week of November. This year Living Wage Week runs from Sunday 30th October to Saturday 5th November. The new independently-calculated UK and London Living Wage rates are announced every year on the Monday. The UK rate is announced simultaneously in cities around the country whilst the London rate is announced by the Mayor of London. Trent Refractories is proud to be part of this initiative.

Celebrating You! 120,000 workers given a pay rise, nearly 3,000 accredited employers and the real Living Wage rates! The week is a UK-wide celebration of the Living Wage movement. It is a great opportunity to raise awareness of the need for a real Living Wage that meets the cost of living and celebrate responsible employers that commit to ensuring their staff earn a wage they can live on. The week sees employers all across the country celebrating their role in the movement publicly. The Foundation holds events, organises media activities and shares new research about the impact of low pay.
