Flintshire Council slammed for condemning staff in privately-run care homes to the minimum wage


A BODY representing almost 500 independent social care providers has called a council's decision to base care home fees on paying half the staff the minimum wage a “kick in the teeth for frontline coronavirus. heroes".
Care Forum Wales has slammed Flintshire Council for condemning staff in privately-run care homes to the minimum wage while paying carers in council-run homes nearly £2,500 a year more.
In Wales, pay rates for carers are effectively determined by local councils who set the level of fees care homes and domiciliary care companies receive.
Flintshire, along with many other authorities and health boards, use a formula which calculates how much they want to allocate towards all care home costs, including what staff are paid.
