ACCA Asia-Pacific senior policy consultant Sharath Martin argues that paying a living wage is not only a human right but also crucial for business sustainability. He emphasizes that businesses unable to afford a living wage lack a sustainable model and will struggle with future economic, climate, or natural crises.

Sharath says paying wages that workers need in order to have a decent standard of living is a matter of human rights.Businesses that cannot afford to pay a living wage do not effectively have a sustainable model and will need to prepare to deal with future shocks from economic, climate, or natural crises.
