Trauma-informed wages?

McDonalds Can't Figure Out How Its Workers Survive on Minimum Wage -- This caught my eye, because on the financial planning site that McDonalds and Visa developed for their minimum-wage earners, the only way these people could survive economically was to have a second job, beyond the 40 hours a week they work at McD's. And even that second job was not likely to cover basic living costs. Does this make a case for trauma-informed wages? (I'm sure there's a better way to describe this...)
