SureCare Glasgow Achieves Living Wage Accreditation

SureCare Glasgow is proud to announce its accreditation as a Living Wage employer, reflecting its commitment to paying every member of staff a real Living Wage.

This recognition ensures that SureCare Glasgow employees earn a wage based on the actual cost of living, exceeding the government’s minimum National Living Wage.

In Scotland, approximately 10.1% of jobs pay less than the real Living Wage, leaving around 234,000 workers struggling to meet rising costs. SureCare Glasgow is leading the way in changing this by committing to fairness and ensuring their team receives a fair day’s pay for a hard day’s work.

Directors Sammira and Sumaira, who head SureCare Glasgow, expressed their pride in achieving this milestone:

“Care workers are the backbone of our service, making a real difference in the lives of others every single day. This commitment is about fairness and showing how much we value the people who make everything we do possible.”

Peter Kelly, Director of The Poverty Alliance, congratulated SureCare Glasgow on their achievement:

“We all need an income that reflects the cost of living. Too many workers in Scotland earn less than the real Living Wage and face mounting financial challenges. The real Living Wage offers protection from these pressures. Congratulations to SureCare Glasgow for their leadership in becoming Living Wage accredited. We hope many more organisations follow suit.”

Gail Irvine, Living Wage Scotland Manager, also celebrated the news:

“We’re delighted that SureCare Glasgow has joined the growing movement of nearly 3,750 Living Wage employers in Scotland. By committing to pay the real Living Wage, they’ve ensured their workers have what they need to thrive. We hope their leadership inspires others to follow their example.”

Since its inception, the Living Wage movement has delivered pay increases to nearly half a million workers, injecting £3.5 billion into the pockets of low-paid employees. SureCare Glasgow’s accreditation demonstrates its dedication to the well-being and financial security of its team.
