GMB has responded to ‘morally bankrupt’ claims by the Policy Exchange’
Natalie Grayson, GMB National Officer, said:
“Care workers are some of the hardest-working yet underpaid and undervalued members of society.
“It takes a special kind of twisted mind to claim giving them a pay rise will somehow damage the economy.
“Not only are these dodgy figures economically unsound, they are morally bankrupt.
“Fair Pay Agreements will give care workers a proper quality of life and force care companies to invest in workers, rather than siphoning off profits to tax havens.”
