living wage

Noun

 * 1)  The minimum income necessary for a worker to meet their basic needs.

Usage notes
Whereas a minimum wage is the minimum that is legal in a given jurisdiction, a living wage is the minimum that is adequate to prevent destitution, whose cutoff value is subjective but is sometimes operationally defined using economic statistics in similar ways as poverty lines are defined.
