[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I’ll bite. Living wage is meant as — at minimum — a minimum wage for the locale. $15/hr in DC. That is a wage that helps meet basic needs. That seems fairly clear from reading this board. In fact, 67% of Americans surveyed last year by the Pew Research Center expressed support for raising the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour. It is shocking that the willingness to pay substinence rates or below is so prevalent at dcum.[/quote] Well, by your definition, APs are making minimum wage, since they don’t pay for food, housing, transportation, or a cell phone. $1000 budget for clothes every month is fantastic! [/quote] The recommendation is not to pay below minimum wage. Also, to not deduct for room and board if living in is part of the employment offer. If you do deduct, to deduct a max of $77 per week.
