That the Parliament supports the reported calls from Unite the Union’s National Care Service campaign for workers in the care sector, who are subject to Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) fees, to have them paid either through government funding or their employer if they work for a for-profit model care organisation; understands that the SSSC requires workers to make a yearly payment to them, which can range from £25 to £80, depending on the work they are doing, and which then allows workers to work within the social care sector in Scotland; recognises that the previous Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care ran a pilot in which the Scottish Government paid the SSSC and Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) fees for new starts in the sector; welcomes the pay deal that, it understands, was won by workers in local authority care sector roles and means that local authorities will now pay SSSC fees for local government workers; regrets that this does not apply to carers working for private sector employers, who deliver public sector contracts, and believes that the same offer given to workers in the public sector should be extended to all care workers regardless of employer, in order to end what it sees as the disparity between publicly and privately employed workers' terms and conditions, and considers that care workers in Scotland have been undervalued for far too long and that this is clearly having an impact on recruitment and retention in the sector.
