Sick of SSP Campaign Noticeboard
Your latest updates on the campaign for full sick pay for care sector workers
Proper sick pay makes for safer workplaces - care workers are sick of SSP!

When care workers can't afford to take time off sick, they're under pressure to bring their illness to work, exposing both colleagues and residents.
Nine out of ten care workers can’t afford to take time off sick, while just 1% get full company sick pay.
