Compass secured this recognition for its leadership in advancing the real Living Wage within their own industry and their client network, since becoming a Living Wage Recognised Service Provider in October 2021.
The Living Wage is a key part of ‘Our Social Promise’ – the company’s social mobility strategy that has seen it make a commitment to provide support to one million people from both within and outside the organisation.
Robin Mills, managing director of Compass Group UK & Ireland, said: “It’s a huge honour to be awarded the Living Wage Champion Award as a Recognised Service Provider (RSP). We signed up to the real Living Wage in 2021 during the pandemic, which had shone a spotlight on the extraordinary work of our frontline teams.
“Being a RSP has enabled us to have conversations about the real Living Wage with our clients, and we are delighted that by working in partnership with them, we have been able to support over 300 contracts to move to the real Living Wage.”
