Expats in Spain can Work in UK, Thanks to Home Care Provider's Flexible Working Program

25/06/2014

The Good Care Group has recently announced its innovative flexible working program that allows British expatriates in Spain with passion for care to work in the UK.

The Good Care Group is an award-winning home care provider with operations throughout England and Scotland. It specialises in one-to-one live in care and has been recognised by the Health Investor Awards.  

Spain is currently recovering from a serious economic crisis which started six years ago. Current data from the Spanish government estimates the country’s unemployed population at about six million. Migrants have been particularly affected by the Spanish economic crisis and have a higher rate of unemployment at 36.6% compared to 24.3% for Spanish citizens.

The Good Care Group said they are aware of the plight of many British expatriates in Spain who find it difficult to maintain their financial stability. The home care provider says it is willing to tap into the talents of expatriates who have experience in the care industry or even those who lack professional background in care but nevertheless have the passion for care.  

Under the program, carers can work two weeks straight and then take the other two weeks off. This flexible rota pattern allows carers who live abroad to take enough time off from work and refresh. To facilitate travel, the home care provider says they plan their carers’ schedule ahead of time so that they can get for them the best flight deals.

The Good Care Group exclusively employ their carers and grant them benefits that strengthen their job and financial security. They provide paid holidays, 24/7 centralised support, and rewards for improved performance.
