Tune in and stay on top of what’s shaping the workplace today!

In this episode Steve takes a closer look at new research from Dayforce on living wage access in the United States - and the findings are hard to ignore. Despite a relatively stable labor market, fewer full-time workers today are earning enough to meet basic needs than just a few years ago.

We break down the most important insights from the report, including widening gaps across gender, race, and job type, and what those disparities reveal about how work is structured and compensated. More importantly, we examine what this means through the lens of fairness, equity, and the fundamental purpose of work.
