Pay is still a sensitive topic. What someone earns is determined by a whole host of factors, and it affects businesses, workers, society and the wider economy. While most countries have minimum wage laws, it is recognised that these often do not enable workers to earn enough to support a decent standard of living.
Businesses have a key role to play. Setting the right level of pay for all staff is an important decision, and is not limited to simply an hourly or annual wage. It is closely linked to employment rights and protections, contract types, economic viability, notions of fair pay, and the supply chain.
