The Living Wage rate is set to rise to 22 dollars 75 per hour from September. Living Wage Aotearoa says the three percent increase is based on the average annual earnings movement in the last June quarter. There are more than 200 accredited Living Wage Employers. The national convenor for Living Wage Aotearoa, Annie Newman, talks to Susana about what impact the rise will have.
