What does this mean?
Well, it means we don’t pay minimum wage – we pay a living wage.
Currently, the minimum wage in Ontario is $16.55, and the living wage in our area is $20.70 – however, the Living Wage is going up 9.9% this year. The living wage is calculated on a few things including if the employee has benefits, which our staff do!
We provide our staff with a Health Benefits package and pay half the premiums for them.
Behn and I feel strongly that paying a Living Wage and providing Benefits is an important part of running our company. We believe happy and healthy staff are part of what makes a strong foundation for our company to be successful!
You can feel good about supporting our small business and our team! Not only will you receive an excellent service, but you can know you are truly helping support each person on our team and their family.
