With the support of over 200 groups, Living Wage NZ advocates for a living wage that provides workers with the basic necessities of life, allowing them to live with dignity and participate as active citizens in society. Living Wage NZ focuses on influencing those in power, particularly in areas where incomes are funded by public money and where large employers can afford to pay a living wage. The movement brings together community, union, and faith-based groups to campaign for change. Living Wage NZ operates independently of any political party and is funded through donations and support from various organizations.

By becoming a Living Wage Employer, businesses commit to paying their directly employed and contracted workers no less than the living wage. The movement is governed by a National Governance Board, consisting of members from various organizations and sectors. Living Wage NZ is grateful for the support from member organizations, Living Wage Accredited Employers, and Principal Partners Council. The movement also relies on dedicated volunteers who tirelessly advocate for the Living Wage in their communities.
