Recherchetool für Materialien Labour minute costing - A tool for establishing living wage floors in garment factories Fair Wear Foundation’s living wage strategy focuses on a step-by-step process of identifying and overcoming obstacles to the payment of living wages. Payment of a living wage – one that is sufficient to meet basic needs of workers and their families, and to provide some discretionary income – is one of FWF’s eight core labour standards, derived from United Nations and ILO norms. While many organisations focus on the question of How much is a living wage? in different countries, FWF’s emphasis is on questions of How can living wages be implemented? The complexity of international supply chains means that a significant number of practical questions need to be answered if wages for workers are to improve, even once a living wage benchmark has been agreed upon by a brand, a factory, and workers. For brands interested in working towards living wages, this paper provides tools to calculate realistic estimates of how much a wage increase for the lowest-paid workers at a factory will cost in total, and at per- garment and per-style levels.
