The Living Wage Foundation is a UK organisation campaigning for fair pay. The Living Wage Foundation’s real Living Wage is independently calculated based on what people need for a decent standard of living. According to their independent research, these wages enable people to maintain a decent standard of living. 

Recognised Service Providers 

As a Recognised Service Provider of the Living Wage Foundation, OCS commit’s to paying all directly employed colleagues, not tied to customer contracts, the real Living Wage. We also pledge to always offer a real Living Wage bid alongside every market rate submittal to all prospective and current customers. This ensures that customers have the choice to implement the real Living Wage at the point of tender. By supporting this initiative, we ensure that all our colleagues have the opportunity to receive a wage that meets the cost of living, not just the minimum legal requirement.

Promoting Social Equality  

Our support for the Living Wage Foundation reflects our broader social commitments. We believe in creating positive social change within our communities and beyond. By championing fair wages, we contribute to reducing income inequality and promoting economic stability. We also work to help people with various barriers to employment find gainful work through our People into Work initiative and help to empower local communities with our charity, OCS Foundation.
