“A large number of part-time women are moving in to sectors like social care and cleaning where wages are low and contracts are often insecure.
“Unless we create better-paid part-time and flexible work opportunities, far too few women will see any real benefit from the recovery.”
East Devon Watch 
Women in part-time, low-paid jobs will mean they are in reduced circumstances when they retire, as any contributions into a pension scheme will also be derisory.

Is this not what the Government wants, after the facts of County Councils selling their care homes, they need to have people working for even lower rates then they themselves paid, so to keep the very high costs of private care down to an acceptable level. It is a Win Win situation and another reason for having an excuse to have many more people from abroad coming to work here, to fill all the job vacancies in nursing homes.
