They're not entitled to the new national pay deal.
The Labour Party is calling for better pay for midlands workers in the community healthcare sector.
Employees from so-called 'Section 39' organisations that provide services for the HSE are not entitled to the improved terms negotiated in the new national pay deal.
The government won't oppose a motion lodged by Labour in the Dáil last week, with the Workplace Relations Commission expected to make a judgement on the issue.
Westmeath councillor Denis Leonard says the process needs to happen as soon as possible:
