Care home staff and support workers took to the streets outside Renfrewshire House on the last day of strike action
CARE staff and support workers took to the streets outside Renfrewshire House on the last day of strike action.
Gwenda Helie, a home carer worker in Renfrewshire, was at the strike action and is calling on bosses to give a date as to when the back payments will be paid."They will not give us a date as to when we will receive it which is not any good at all."Moral is high and the public is 100% behind us. The comments that we have gotten from people, even from families that we have looked after, have been so positive.
She said:"Care workers are disappointed at having to continue strike action but determined to secure wages that fairly reflect their work along with the money already owed to them.
