This report from UK think tank the Living Wage Foundation looks at the impact that low pay has on households and families.
During a period of unprecedented rises to the cost-of-living, we explore the impact that low pay has on households and families, with a particular focus on the increasing ‘bite’ of low pay with rising inflation. The report finds low paid workers are increasingly likely to be forgoing essentials, skipping meals and falling behind on household bills. The research also explores the impact of low pay and rising costs on health, happiness and family life and relationships.
