The Strategy for Care Workforce (TUC Aug 2023) states that …’The single greatest challenge affecting our care system is staffing – with both sectors experiencing acute recruitment and retention issues. Care work remains stubbornly low paid, with workers overwhelmingly facing poor working conditions, limited development and progression opportunities, and poor support for their health, safety and wellbeing.’
‘It is time for a comprehensive people plan, led by
those on the ground – the workforce and their representatives.’
