What is
Alberta Living Wage?
No one can live well on a legislated minimum wage. The cost of living is significantly higher. By paying a living wage, employers can ensure their employees are able to be healthy, productive and contributing members of their communities.

Alberta Living Wage has created the Living Wage Employer Program and has been certifying both businesses and organizations paying a living wage since November 2021. The Alberta Living Wage Network calculates the Living Wage rate for many Alberta communities.
