The gap between what workers are paid and what it costs to live is not a theory...
it's a number.
This is where you find it

Most of what goes wrong in a social compliance audit is visible long before the auditor arrives.
The documentation gaps, the wage structures that won’t survive scrutiny, the grievance systems that technically exist but don’t actually work.
I help companies find those things before someone else does.
ROOT AND WANDER
You've handled audits before. The living wage question is different.
It's not on the standard checklist your team prepared. It's not a documentation gap you can close the night before. It's a number — and if you don't know it, your auditor will find that out before you do.
