Hamilton City looks like it’ll be the first Council to pay a Living Wage as the appropriate sub-committee voted for it today. It will need to be confirmed by the full council, but should proceed.
Currently 80 staff are paid less than the $18.40 living wage, most in libraries and pools.
I’m a bit disappointed Len and Auckland haven’t managed to make the commitment and be first, but Len there’s still a chance for second place ahead of Wellington…
