Precision Syrups pays a living wage* to its employees.
Though at present we only hire part-time employees, the hourly rate is to give value to skilled workers. Precision Syrups goes beyond the “living wage” calculations, offering employees a rate slightly above the determined living wage. This commitment recognizes that living expenses vary significantly across Michigan's diverse counties, each with its own unique cost of housing, food, and transportation. By exceeding the standard living wage, Precision Syrups helps to provide its employees with financial stability, fostering a sense of security and well-being that promotes both individual success and a thriving local community.
We made a commitment to caring for our employees and paying a living wage.
Currently, owner Tiffany Wood, who with husband Ben started the company in November of 2022, has a small team with Isabel Gibbons*, Hugh Gibbons*, Lauren Roberto*, Xavier Gibbons, Rebecah Martin, and Norah Wood (*pictured). Learn more about our team.
It was a pleasant surprise to hear our employees requesting an earlier return date after their winter break.. They cited a desire to get back to their routines and the enjoyment of their work as the reasons for their enthusiasm. Paying well matters.
At Precision Syrups we make all natural rich simple syrups with real premium ingredients. We are driven by a mission to foster shared experiences and connections through the use of our syrups, in-home demos and recipes.
*Living wage calculations, performed annually, reflect the true cost of basic necessities, far exceeding the state-mandated minimum wage.
