Since its launch twenty years ago more than 16,000 employers have signed up for the Real Living Wage, generating a pay increase for more than 350,000 employees and a total wage transfer of about £3bn. Supporting employers include FTSE-listed corporations, large public service organizations, charities and social enterprises, and thousands of small businesses.

Cardiff Business School and Cardiff University have played an important role in this journey and are pleased to welcome their new Vice-Chancellor, Professor Wendy Larner to offer some words of welcome at the outset of their Breakfast Briefing to help to celebrate everything that the Living Wage has achieved. 

They will also be joined by Huw Thomas, Leader of Cardiff City Council, who will discuss how the council has led a drive to make Cardiff a Living Wage City.

Then, academics Dr Deborah Hann, Professor Edmund Heery, and Dr David Nash will share key findings from their report, Twenty Years of the Living Wage: The Employer Experience, which was based on a survey conducted in 2021 of all accredited employers to gauge the impact of the Living Wage on their organizations.
