HC-One announces £20m pay investment
HC-One has announced an investment of over £20m in colleague pay and conditions for 2025. With over 19,000 colleagues, HC-One
employs the largest health and social care workforce outside of the NHS. This new investment will see almost 90 per cent of HC- One colleagues earning the Real Living Wage (RLW) or above.
In addition, from 1 October, the first
three days of sick pay will be paid at £40 per day, more than double the government’s statutory rate of £16.96. The move builds on HC-One’s 2024 announcement that sick pay would begin on day one of sickness. HC-One chief executive James Tugendhat said: “Our colleagues are at the heart of how we support and care for residents across
Britain, and it is only right that we continue to do everything we can to reward them for the crucial work that they do. “Despite the continued challenges facing
the sector, we are immensely proud of our continued commitment to improving colleague pay and to have also made further improvements to sick pay. Our total investment in pay of over £110m in just four years marks a significant milestone for us, and we see the impact of this investment in our ever-improving retention rates. “We are also continuing to engage with our
local authority and NHS partners, who fund the majority of the residents we support, to secure fee uplifts that will enable us to go even further on colleague pay, as we continue to support those in our care to lead their best lives.”
The home is Macc Care’s largest to date, offering 90 bedrooms and amenities including a cafe, cinema, gym, and salon. Wyrley Rose is adjacent to Wyrley Court, Macc Care’s latest retirement village, establishing an integrated community that promotes continuity of care, social connection, and shared amenities. Bhav Amlani, director of Macc Care Group,
said: “Wyrley Rose marks an exciting new chapter for Macc Care. As our largest home to date, it reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering outstanding care within purpose- built environments that truly feel like home. “We know communities across the Midlands are facing rising demand for high-quality, accessible care, particularly for individuals living with complex or evolving needs. Wyrley Rose has been designed to help bridge that gap.”
