Cleanology CEO, Dominic Ponniah, has joined the Living Wage Foundation’s Recognised Service Provider (RSP) Leadership Group.
The group acts to encourage wider take-up of fair pay, and to make the accreditation scheme more effective.
Ponniah commented: “In our industry, with many staff classed as low-skilled, decent pay is an issue for many. As a member of the leadership group, I hope to act as a bridge between the Living Wage Foundation and the cleaning industry, to increase our own client uptake of support for the Real Living Wage, and to promote transparency among businesses that display fair pay credentials.”
Cleanology publishes a monthly report on the number of new clients signing up to the Living Wage. In January, this figure was 100%. In total, over 70% of the company’s workforce is paid a Real Living Wage rate or higher; the aim is to reach 80% by the end of the year, rising to 100% within two years.
Sebastian Bachelier, Programme Manager at the Living Wage Foundation, said: “Dominic has been a great proponent of the Real Living Wage and the Recognised Service Provider accreditation, and we at the Living Wage Foundation are delighted to have him join the Recognised Service Provider Leadership Group.
“The RSP accreditation was created [to give] the client the opportunity to guarantee a Real Living Wage to their third party contracted staff, while being able to consider the benefits for their business. These benefits can include improved rates of retention, higher levels of productivity, and more motivated and engaged members of staff.”
RSPs are companies that employ outsourced staff. Of the 10,000 businesses signed up to Living Wage Foundation accreditation, 177 fall under this category.
