"A new report calls for living wages to be embraced as an investment in business success and a key step towards ending in-work poverty. The report demonstrates how living wages benefit core operations, value chains and the wider operating environment and enable businesses to better meet their human rights commitments. It is time for businesses, investors and governments to realise the right to a living wage for hundreds of millions of workers worldwide."
