Moo Cluck Moo owners Harry Moorhouse and Brian Parker never really thought about a living wage when they opened their fast food restaurant. It was never a question — they just thought it was the right thing to do. Providing a living wage would mean happier employees, which would lead to better retention and better service. Now that they are considering franchising the business they are wondering if employee wages will be a contract provision. If so, all of their best intentions may be for naught.
