Worshipful Company of Environmental Cleaners accredited as Living Wage employer
21st of March 2022In the UK, the Worshipful Company of Environmental Cleaners (WCEC) has become the first livery company to be accredited as a Living Wage employer.
Gary Fage, master of the WCEC commented: "The Living Wage demonstrates an understanding that without fair pay, we cannot adequately resource our industry. Fair is fair when it comes to remuneration.
"I'd like to recognise the foresight and efforts of the WCEC court assistant, Phil Smith, whose experience with the Living Wage Foundation and as a founding member of the Recognised Service Provider Scheme have helped to smooth our livery's way to becoming a Living Wage Employer."
There will be a dedicated area on the WCEC website specific to its Living Wage Employer status and any related initiatives.
