Raise wages for Care Home Staff
Increase the wages of those working in healthcare and not just recognise the NHS
After working in care for almost 8 years it is apparent to me that staff feel unappreciated for the work they do due to such little pay and not enough recognition. For example staff who stack shelves in a supermarket get paid more than us individuals who work in Health care, our job is physically and emotionally challenging.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.
The Government sets national minimum wages for workers of different ages, but isn't responsible for setting the salaries for privately employed individuals, including care home workers.
As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.
