WageMap Information

WageMap’s mission is to support the achievement of living wages for workers globally, in four ways: (1) Establish a Living Wage reference Standard: -- Develop a single, universally accepted living wage reference standard for comparison through collaborative consultations. Guide data providers, offer a foundation for creating incentives, and promote transparency in employer actions. (2) Create a Single Database of Globally Comparable, Locally Specific, Benchmarks: Determine a consistent living wage benchmark that is globally comparable yet locally tailored – for every location. (3) Strengthen Implementation Support: -- Build a robust network of service providers who can guide and support entities in adopting best practices for sourcing, pricing, and compensating workers. Meanwhile, build a Knowledge Hub to curate, organize, and disseminate information. (4) Expand the Global Movement -- Cultivate a vast community of stakeholders, both global and local, committed to promoting living wages. Integrated into, and complementary to, existing initiatives at national- and sector-level. You can become a Launch Partner or Member. Interested in learning more?
