Understanding and implementing the real Living Wage

8 May 2025 - RenewableUK guidance


Guidance produced by RenewableUK, working with the Living Wage Foundation and SSE Renewables, on understanding and Implementing the real Living Wage. This is a source of practical information for members and companies throughout the UK’s renewable energy sector, outlining how they can adopt the real Living Wage as part of a wider just transition underpinned by decent work.


Delivering net zero requires changes of substantial scale and nature, which will impact on employees, consumers, communities and wider society in different ways. Ensuring a fair and just transition means guaranteeing good working standards for the people delivering it, with ‘green jobs’ that provide fair and decent work, value the voices of employees, drive transformation through inclusion and diversity, and attract and grow talent.
