Mersey Care staff claim they've been 'underpaid and paid late for three months'

Members of staff at Mersey Care NHS Trust have said they have faced issues with pay, including late payments and underpayment, for the last three months.

An employee told the ECHO that they had been left without pay for recent shifts. The ECHO also understands that other members of staff have complained about not receiving any payment or being underpaid for work that has been carried out over the past three months.

Mersey Care staff said that the pay issues have left them out of pocket, while one employee told the ECHO that they were unable to pay for a planned birthday party for their child or fulfil Easter Sunday plans to go for a meal out due to a missing payment. The ECHO also understands that one member of staff was told that they would be paid but the trust was unsure when that would happen.
