On 7 July 2015 the Minister for Public Services issued a Written Statement announcing the publication of research on the use of zero hours contracts in devolved public services.


As the Minister for Public Services outlined, the research provides an important insight into the variety of circumstances in which zero hours contracts are used across public services. It had some particular concerns around the use of zero hours contracts in the home care workforce. These related to the impacts of zero hours contracts on the desirability of a career in home care, and the continuity of care.


I therefore intend to work with the sector to commission rapid research focusing on the desirability of a career in home care, and the continuity of care delivered. This will not just focus on how zero hours contracts impact on these issues, but will explore wider issues to do with training, pay in the sector, how rotas are organised and more. Ultimately the research will examine how these issues impact on the quality of care delivered. This action reflects my commitment to enabling the workforce to deliver the best care possible for the people of Wales.


I am undertaking this work at the same time that the Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales) Bill is undergoing scrutiny in the National Assembly. Part of the policy response to this research will therefore examine how the powers provided by that legislation could be used to support any changes required.


I will publish the results of the research alongside a written statement.

Ar 7 Gorffennaf 2015, cyhoeddodd y Gweinidog Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus ddatganiad ysgrifenedig am ymchwil a gyhoeddwyd i’r defnydd o gontractau dim oriau mewn gwasanaethau cyhoeddus datganoledig.

Fel yr amlinellodd y Gweinidog Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus, mae’r gwaith ymchwil yn rhoi darlun pwysig o’r amrywiaeth o amgylchiadau y caiff contractau dim oriau eu defnyddio ynddynt ar draws y gwasanaethau cyhoeddus. Codwyd pryderon penodol ynghylch y defnydd o gontractau dim oriau yn y gweithlu gofal cartref. Roedd y rhain yn ymwneud ag effaith contractau dim oriau ar ba mor atyniadol yw gyrfa ym maes gofal yn y cartref a pharhad y gofal a ddarperir.

Rwyf, felly, yn bwriadu gweithio gyda’r sector i gomisiynu ymchwil, a hynny’n fuan, i ffocysu ar ba mor atyniadol yw gyrfa mewn gofal yn y cartref, a pharhad y gofal a ddarperir. Nid dim ond sut y mae contractau dim oriau’n effeithio ar y materion hyn fydd ffocws yr ymchwil hwn – bydd hefyd yn archwilio materion ehangach yn ymwneud â hyfforddiant, tâl yn y sector, sut y caiff rotâu eu trefnu, a mwy. Yn y pen draw, nod yr ymchwil fydd archwilio sut y mae’r materion hyn yn effeithio ar safon y gofal a ddarperir. Mae hyn yn dangos fy ymrwymiad i alluogi’r gweithlu i ddarparu’r gofal gorau posibl i bobl Cymru.

Caiff y gwaith hwn ei wneud ar yr un pryd ag y mae’r Cynulliad Cenedlaethol yn craffu ar y Bil Rheoleiddio ac Arolygu Gofal Cymdeithasol (Cymru). Bydd rhaid i ran o’r ymateb polisi i’r ymchwil hwn, felly, archwilio sut y gellir defnyddio’r pwerau a ddarperir gan y ddeddfwriaeth honno i gefnogi unrhyw newidiadau sydd eu hangen.

Byddaf yn siŵr o gyhoeddi canlyniadau’r gwaith ymchwil ynghyd â datganiad ysgrifenedig.
