Living Wage Employer
We are proud to be an accredited Living Wage employer, supporting fair pay and better working lives across The Stand Comedy Club.
Living Wage
Why it matters
“You can’t say it’s not possible because we’re proving it’s possible”
Our commitment
Comedy works better when people can thrive
Being a Living Wage employer means staff can have a life outside of the company. There is a real pressure on the arts just now, particularly with limited central funding, so private companies like ours need to help people in the industry survive and thrive.
