The Oxford employers that pay Oxford Living Wage

The Oxford Living Wage is an hourly minimum pay that promotes liveable earnings for all workers and recognises the high cost of living in Oxford.

For 2022-23 the rate is £10.50 an hour. If an employee works a 37 hour week, this would mean a minimum annual pay of £20,202.

Oxford City Council has set the rate at 95 per cent of the London Living Wage.

Councillor Susan Brown, leader of Oxford City Council, said: “These are tough times for businesses, so it’s heartening to see so many employers committing to paying their staff a proper living wage. This will undoubtedly play a big part in attracting job applicants and retaining them.

“We’ve seen a significant rise in the number of businesses taking part in the scheme and now have eighty two separate organisations accredited as paying the Oxford Living Wage.

“The Council has a corporate objective to build a fairer economy for everybody, and paying everyone a decent wage in such a high-cost city is a key part of it becoming a reality”.
