Hi dave birdmal,

My wife also works as a care assistant and when she started working as a part-timer back in June 2013, she was getting paid about 4.55 per hour. She now works as full timer and she's on a annual salary, so, not sure exactly how much it comes up per hour but it should be a bit more then initially.

Hope it helps!
Antonio

I find that highly surprising for care workers, qualified nurses maybe, just, if not less?!

Yeah, I have agreed with you! My wife is not a fully qualified care yet and she earns much less than that. I'd also say that's more like a nurse's salary.

Hi , yeah I would have to agree with the previous posts regarding wages.
I was getting a little over €18,000 plus Sunday enhancements but that's a Registered Nurse's rate. The Care assistants working with us were getting about half that.
I would be amazed if a carer found a job paying anywhere near €15,000 !!!
The wages are shocking for health professionals and carers in malta , hence why we're now back in the UK earning a proper salary !!!

It seems to me in Malta doing any jobs if one earns more than €1000 per month they're probably doing better than at least 75% of the population.
