Description

As wealth inequality rises and trade union power declines, understanding the gap between minimum wage and actual living costs is more important than ever. This book by Routledge examines the urgent need for a real living wage, which provides the minimum income required for people to cover basic living costs and participate fully in society. Many existing government minimum wages fall short of what workers actually need to survive. This text addresses the struggles of millions of workers living near the breadline. It provides new insights for public policymakers, academics, and workers looking to understand the global movement toward fairer compensation. By exploring the difference between standard minimum wages and a true living wage, this work offers a vital perspective on economic participation and social stability in a changing global landscape.
