News : “The health and social care visa’ is a real kick in the teeth for the care sector after their vital contribution to saving lives and helping to tackle the virus. “The points-based immigration system discriminates against the key workers we have relied upon during this pandemic and risks decimating Scotland’s care sector.“If the Tories refuse to listen to concerns and make significant changes, then Scotland must have the powers to design our own immigration system – one that will not cripple our key sectors in the middle of a health crisis.”And Scottish Labour warned that the exclusion of social care workers could put Scotland’s ability to tackle COVID at risk.Leading union UNISON has also said the system is a blow to the care.
