Scandal OF 🇬🇧 UK Private Social Care Providers AND Employment Sharp Pratices

Hidden•

Did You Know If YOU carer Is young SHE / HE might well be Cerer Apprentice On £1.90 for your half hour visit yet care provider gets £24 £25 ph each carer provided.

Now this is where things get interesting even illegal in my opinion

A single young carer gets £3.90 ph as Apprentices IF half hour call takes two £3.90 is devided and each carer will get £1.90

So you see these private carer agencies are acting Ilegal and not paying min wage

Is a disgrace even Slavery Carer Apprentships and how they can chop and dice living wage.

That's awful, JAS.

Is and there is no reason on earth why should be that way WELL apart from greed

My partner is a professional carer, and she says "poppycock". You need to check your facts, you are so very wrong!

I think i am inclined to agree,Tameside as of April 2019 have a contract with careway for their home help services,under that contract the care company are paid £14.77 per hour per person attending and under the contract all care workers must be paid a minimum of £9 per hour regardless of age.

Admittedly they are still striving under Unison to obtain fare rates and times for travelling within jobs like most other care workers.

My facts come from several sources mouths MY facks are 💯 %

Clearly you can’t see picture of min wage and carer apprentice’s LIKE I say the slice dice hourly rate.

You are wrong 100%. If you still think you are correct ask CQC for the real facts. You have been led up the garden path and been fooled by anecdotal misinformation. End of.

You belive what you want to and all belive what I want to .. > end off

You just don't get it do you. They are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Ask them.
