Providing subsistence wages
- Providing minimum wages
Description
Providing subsistence wages involves ensuring that workers receive compensation sufficient to meet their basic needs, such as food, shelter, and healthcare. This strategy aims to alleviate poverty, reduce exploitation, and promote social stability by establishing wage floors or standards. Practical actions include setting minimum wage laws, enforcing fair labor practices, and supporting collective bargaining, thereby remedying issues of underpayment and improving the quality of life for vulnerable and low-income populations.
