Does the Department correlate and graph the entry-level wages these people get when they move into employment? Low pay has also come up as a significant issue at this committee. Those who may be leaving caring, in caring or perhaps with a disability find themselves almost locked into low-pay employment with very few opportunities for progression or to move to a higher level of pay. Education plays a key role in that.
