Making NI a Living Wage Region
Advice NIConferenceTraining/AdviceNorthern Ireland has the highest proportion of jobs paid below the real Living Wage in the UK, with some council areas seeing rates as high as one in four. Women are disproportionately affected, with 24.5% earning below the Real Living Wage compared to 16.3% of men. Part-time workers face an even greater disparity - at 38%, they are nearly three times more likely to be paid below the Real Living Wage than full-time workers, where only 13.5% fall below this threshold.- - -
