Join Our Campaign

The Apprentice Decent Wage (ADW) pledge campaign is gathering momentum! Below are some of the organisations who have joined our national initiative. By joining our campaign you will be helping to address apprenticeship low wages, and by doing so, the number of candidates for apprenticeship vacancies across all sectors will increase.

We ask our members to sign our pledge to commit to:

  • Not to pay the apprentice minimum wage to apprentices but to pay them a fair and decent wage.

  • Encouraging other employers to participate in the campaign

  • Playing your part in addressing fair wages for apprentices

  • If you are an organisation that doesn’t have the budget to pay more than the apprentice minimum wage set by Government you are pledging to working towards a higher wage for apprentices in the future
