UNISON has signed a charter with Salford City Council in Greater Manchester to protect vulnerable migrant care workers.

The public service union says migrant care workers face exploitation, including by employers who have sponsored their visa to work to Britain.

The Migrant Care Worker Charter calls for fair pay, equal employment rights and better protections at work, Unison said, adding that it also commits Salford council to help find new employment for migrant care workers who lose their job.
