UNISON’s real living wage campaign fights for all workers to receive a wage based on the actual cost of living not just the government minimum wage. Our campaign focuses on ending in-work poverty, making sure workers are valued for the work they do and demanding that the real living wage is paid across the Health Trusts in Northern Ireland.
