The Living Wage

employers would gain a direct benefit from higher wages because they would improve the physical condition of workers and make them more industrious. He wrote: ‘Where wages are high, accordingly, we shall always find workmen more active, diligent, and expeditious than when they are low’ A better workforce was more productive which would have the benefit of increasing the wealth of the nation.

yes,l am totally agreeing with this altitude,some employers think they can pay less salaries to workers,but they cannot keep clever and diligent workers for a long time,for the long run,employer cannot get more benefit from employee,
