Calisen Commits to Being a Real Living Wage Employer

From January 2024, all employees at Calisen will be paid the voluntary Real Living Wage rates as a minimum; this is a nationally recognised benchmark and is in line with Calisen’s commitment to being a Real Living Wage Employer.

 

The Real Living Wage is different from the Government’s Living Wage rate and is calculated annually by the Living Wage Foundation, based on evidence about living standards across the UK. It reflects what workers, and their families, need to meet everyday essentials alongside unexpected expenses in consideration of the ongoing cost-of-living crisis.

 

Further to the above, in November 2023, the Company announced a six percent base increase in salaries for those earning less than £50,000 per annum including our Metering and PMI operatives, with all other colleagues receiving at least a five percent uplift to base pay.
