Following a significant pay increase and reorganisation in October last year, GoodOaks have again increased the rates it pays visiting home carers to make it the leading homecare agency in the Bournemouth and Poole conurbation.
Is now the time to change your Homecare Assistant Job or embark on a new career and join GoodOaks?
From April this year, people working in GoodOaks’ Care Assistant jobs in Poole, Bournemouth and Christchurch are receiving a pay increase of nearly 6%, to make the minimum amount GoodOaks pays £8.50 an hour, up to £10.50 an hour during peak times during the week and weekend.
Peak times include before 9am and after 5pm Monday to Friday and all weekend. Bank holidays remain double-time, therefore up to £21 an hour, and mileage is paid at 35 pence per mile.
Staff benefits also remain; such as free gym membership and AA breakdown cover including Home Start.
Notably, Good Oaks is also one of very few Homecare Companies that advertises its’ pay rates publicly. This is to increase transparency in the sector, and to contribute to driving up homecare assistant job salaries. Click the link to find the full rates we pay our homecare assistants.
