Brittany has been doing essential mahi as a care and support worker for 3 years now.

Care and support workers keep people out of hospital, living independently, and connected to their communities. And we all know our health system is bursting at the seams.

Paying them properly isn’t just fair, it’s the right thing to do.

In the lead up to the general election, Māori workers will have an opportunity to meet Māori candidates in a series of election hui across the Māori electorates.

Te Rūnanga o Ngā Kaimahi Māori (CTU Rūnanga) and the Public Service Association Te Pūkenga Here Tikanga Mahi (PSA) are hosting these hui to ensure that the priorities of kaimahi Māori and their whānau are front and centre in this election.

Over the past three years, kaimahi Māori are faced endless attacks on our rights as Māori and as workers. It’s never been more important to engage and ensure that politicians are held accountable.

The Green Party just announced their commitment to repealing the Government’s changes to the Equal Pay Act, restoring the original law and settling the care and support workers’ claim in the first 100 days of a new govt. They also committed to pass legislation to settle the claim if that is what it takes.

This announcement sets the benchmark on what is needed for pay equity to become a reality for care and support workers in New Zealand

Tanya has been a care and support worker for 11 years.

Care and support workers keep people out of hospital, living independently, and connected to their communities. And we all know our health system is bursting at the seams.

Paying them properly isn’t just fair, it’s good for families and our economy. It means fewer children growing up in poverty, and more money going back into local communities 🔥
