Care Workers Sue Council Contractor In Minimum Wage Battle

There must be 10,000's of workers, maybe 100,000's, who will be watching the outcome of this case with great interest.
Its early days of course, but its part of the debate about what we are going to do about our rapidly ageing population.

PP....the care of our old people is at the heart of this case.
My niece worked in this industry for a year or two and told us stories about having as little 15 mins with a patient, once a day. The main reason for that was that there wasn't the budget available for proper care.
The old lady in this case seems to have excellent care, but this was due to the diligence of the staff involved, not the wages that were paid.
Eddie is right....I am not far behind him, at age 63, and we have to accept that much more money is going to needed, if we are all to be looked after properly in our increasingly prolonged old age.

Firstly, to compare nurses to carers demonstrates a profound lack of knowledge regarding the gulf of training and skills required for the respective jobs.
Secondly, if company profits are eroded through paying staff higher wages, how does this result in better care. You're turnover of staff argument has no substance.

Zacs....the money to pay Carers comes from Local Councils, via the companies that the Carers work for.
If we as citizens are prepared to see people paid as little as £3:27 an hour, than we can't them complain when the care given falls below an acceptable standard.
For me, I hope I die before I have to submit to this kind of under-funded care.

Zacs....not sure why you are trying to make excuses for poor company practice and wages. This industry in well over-due for an investigation, just like Hermes

As Ummmm has said, its poor practice that allows Companies to pay these kind of ages....and those wages come directly from our local rates and taxes.
We are well over-due for that debate about care for our elderly and infirm.
In this case, the Court will decide who is telling the truth, but the evidence of the pay-slip looks compelling.
