Balancing the Scales: The Business Case for Living Wages in Seafood
What does it really mean to earn a living wage—and why should seafood companies care? In this episode, we explore the IDH Living Wage Roadmap with Lisa van Wageningen, Program Manager for Aquaculture at IDH – The Sustainable Trade Initiative. Lisa breaks down the key differences between a living wage and a minimum wage, the business benefits of fair pay, and the real challenges companies face when striving for wage equity. We also discuss lessons from other industries, the power of collaboration, and actionable steps companies can take to close the living wage gap. This is a must-listen for anyone passionate about ethical business practices and the future of fair labor in seafood. Tune in to learn why paying a living wage isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s a smart business decision.
