Care and Support Workers Pay Equity Claim – Update to the sector

The PSA, NZNO and E Tū unions have taken a pay equity claim against a representative group of 15 employers of care and support workers in Aotearoa New Zealand.

It is anticipated that if and when a pay equity settlement is reached, the Government will look at extending benefits of any settlement to workers performing the same work in the wider care and support sector. 

This FAQ provides information about the Care and Support Workers Pay Equity Claim – including background to the claim, progress and next steps, and potential future impacts for employers and their staff in the wider sector.

Please note that this FAQ relates primarily to the Care and Support Workers Pay Equity Claim. A separate claim has been lodged for administrators/coordinators and frontline managers in the sector. That claim is progressing in parallel, however it was lodged later and is less advanced than the care and support workers claim.
