Synopsis
Discover a practical plan for lifting families out of poverty with a living wage and child endowment.
This nonfiction exploration argues for a nationwide approach that ties wages to the needs of workers and their children, aiming to strengthen family life and economic stability.
The author examines how a family-based income system could replace or augment existing wage structures. It covers constitutional questions, funding methods, and the social impact of shifting from flat wages to a coordinated, benefits-based framework. Through historical context and policy analysis, the book makes a case for reform focused on mothers, children, and the broader economy.
- Explanations of how a living wage and child endowment could work together to reduce poverty
- Discussion of legal and political considerations surrounding wage policy
- Analyses of costs, benefits, and potential effects on industry and families
- Historical and global context showing where such policies have been debated or adopted
Ideal for readers of social policy, economics, and welfare reform seeking clear, grounded arguments.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the development of the living wage doctrine in Australia. It examines the landmark Harvester Case of 1907, which established the principle that employers have a responsibility to provide a living wage for their employees. However, the author argues that the current system of applying a uniform wage rate to all employees, regardless of family size, has failed to provide for the basic needs of many families. The author proposes a new system that combines a basic wage with a child endowment scheme, funded by a tax on employers. This, the author argues, would ensure that all families have access to a reasonable standard of living. The book makes a significant contribution to the debate on how to ensure a fair and equitable distribution of income in society and provides valuable insights for policymakers, economists, and anyone interested in labor relations and social welfare. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
