Dillon: Care workers provide an essential service, supporting some of the most vulnerable people in our communities
Mid Ulster Sinn Féin MLA Linda Dillon has raised the issue of low pay for care workers directly with the Health Minister.
The party's Social Care spokesperson said: "Care workers provide an essential service, supporting some of the most vulnerable people in our communities, and they deserve fair pay and decent working conditions.
"I have called on the Health Minister to give assurances that companies delivering publicly funded health and social care services are meeting their obligations to workers and paying staff fairly.”
