Our Credentials

London Stadium is a London Living Wage Employer and has made a commitment that all its direct employers, including interns and contractors, are paid the London Living Wage. This means that every member of staff in the organisation earns not just the minimum wage, but a living wage.

The London Living Wage is an hourly rate that is set and updated annually. It is calculated according to the basic cost of living in the UK and employers choose to pay it on a voluntary basis. Payment of the London Living Wage is important because it makes a vital material contribution to low income families and makes business sense by appropriately recognising and rewarding skills and commitment in the workforce.

We were awarded the Good Work Standard to recognise our commitment to our people.

The Mayor of London launched his Good Work Standard as part of his commitment to making London the best city in the world to work.

We are pleased to be one of the Mayor’s Good Work Standard employers in London. We believe this is an important recognition of our commitment to our people. It also reflects the many ways in which we are striving for the best possible working conditions for our employees.

The Mayor’s Good Work Standard sets the benchmark for the best employment standards and helps employers contribute to a fairer and more inclusive London economy. This means an economy that works for all Londoners and means more Londoners can access good jobs.

The Good Work Standard recognises best practice across four pillars; fair pay and conditions, workplace well-being, skills and progression and diversity and recruitment.

To make this happen, the Mayor is working with businesses like ours to celebrate excellent work practices and assist businesses in adopting best practice approaches by bringing together a range of support and resources. Accredited employers currently cover retail, care, finance, banking, local government, media, the culture and creative industries, charities and more.

By signing up to the Mayor’s Good Work Standard, we have signalled that we are committed to healthy, fair and inclusive workplaces. We know this is an important step in attracting and retaining a diverse, talented and successful workforce and we hope to assist other businesses in realising these benefits.

We signed the Time to Change Pledge, to show our public commitment to changing the way people think and act about mental health in the workplace.
