Have You Heard? | Making a Living Wage

  • The Boston Public Health Commission and Center for Social Policy at the University of Massachusetts Boston recently published a Health Impact Assessment of Boston’s Living Wage Ordinance [PDF-3.8MB] that analyzed the relationship between health and socioeconomic status.
  • The report determined that raising the living wage for the lowest paid workers in Boston by $3 an hour would result in their improved mental and physical health, including notable decreases in anxiety, hunger, and chronic health conditions.
