Frontline social care and housing support workers at Blue Triangle Housing Association in Scotland launched a strike on April 1st, demanding fair pay for their skills and responsibilities. The workers, who have not gone on strike in over a decade, are seeking a pay increase that matches inflation, as the latest offer of just two percent for 2024-2025 and one percent for 2025-2026 falls short. The union representing the workers has reported an overwhelming vote in favor of the action, and they are now pressing the Scottish government to deliver the fair pay these staff have long been promised. The strike highlights the urgent need for real change in Scotlands care sector.
