How do I approach my contractors?

You should let your existing and any new contractors know that you have decided to become a Living Wage employer as soon as possible. We can provide a sample letter if you become accredited.

You should approach positively from the point that you are a client that requires a service and the service you require is Living Wage staff. Your contractors may have heard of the Living Wage, but if they have not you can send them some of our information or direct them to the website.
