For Scottish Care Members:

It is now some time since the 1st October saw the start of the Scottish Living Wage (SLW) for front line care workers.  Negotiations for fee rates will be significantly affected both by the introduction of the SLW this year and any future increases.

We want to gain evidence on the impact of the SLW on the care home and care at home/housing support sectors and would be very grateful if you could complete the relevant survey.  This will support our ongoing discussions and negotiations, including in relation to the National Care Home Contract and the Care at Home/Housing Support reform process currently underway.

The information given will be treated in the strictest confidence and will be anonymised when analysed to ensure it is non-identifiable.

Please complete one survey per organisation.  The surveys can be accessed below:

 

Care at Home / Housing Support SLW Survey

Care Home SLW Survey

 

Please complete the relevant survey by 16 December 2016.  It is important that we have a good number of responses to ensure the resulting data is robust.

If you have any questions about the survey, please contact [email protected]

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
