Fifty-one New Zealand home care workers to strike Oct. 23 over pay, safety, and canceled pay equity claim.
Fifty-one West Coast home care support workers in New Zealand, represented by the Public Service Association, will strike on October 23 from noon to 2 p.m. over unresolved pay and training disputes with Health NZ Te Whatu Ora.
The workers, who provide in-home care for vulnerable populations, say the agency’s pay offer falls below the cost of living and fails to address safety concerns, including risks from verbal and physical abuse.
They also express frustration over the government’s cancellation of a prior pay equity claim.
The strike is part of broader nationwide action involving over 15,000 health workers.
