When life happens, your paycheck should be enough. More Americans are using Klarna, Affirm & Afterpay for essentials - not luxuries. 59% can’t afford a $1,000 emergency without debt. A living wage changes that. #LivingWageForUs #BNPL #WageJustice #FairPay

Younger workers are more likely to stay with employers who provide fair, transparent pay (Indeed Hiring Lab, 2025). Gen Z + Millennials expect more than perks, they want trust, respect, and pay that meets real living costs. That’s how you build loyalty. #GenZWorkforce #fairpay

PTO Use Matters. 55% of U.S. workers leave time off unused. Guilt, burnout, and fear of falling behind all play a role. Rest is part of fair work. Take your rest. #LivingWage #PTO #WorkplaceWellbeing

Fair pay. Rest. Dignity. They're human rights, not perks. The 1948 UN Declaration includes the right to rest, fair wages, & a standard of living adequate for health & well-being. Our work with employers advances those rights for all workers. #HumanRights #FairPay

If you lost income unexpectedly, how long could you cover essential expenses? 44% of Americans expect higher unemployment in the next year (Federal Reserve Bank of New York). A true living wage includes a buffer for the unexpected. How about you? #jobmarket #costofliving

The minimum wage was once a foundation. Today, it barely clears the poverty line for a single adult & falls short for families. Raising wages is progress. But shifting the conversation to a LIVING WAGE sets the real standard: stability & dignity for every worker. #LivingWage
