While remuneration is only one reflection of an individual’s worth it exerts intangible influence beyond the numbers. Described as “the income necessary to provide workers and their families with the necessities of life” the living wage has come to mean and provide so much more.  For one thing it’s not about the minimum. At Cityguard each team member has the continuous opportunity to increase their income beyond the living wage by committing to professional and skill development. As they achieve industry qualification so they increase their hourly remuneration.

For us, the living wage is the foundation of a security career.
