I don't understand what "an industrial point of view" means. Pay for childcare/homecare workers comes from customers, people like us. If I needed to hire someone to care for a loved one, I would shop around and look for candidates that meet my expectations for experience, CPR training, or whatever else is important to me. If there are multiple options with similar qualifications, I would choose the less expensive one.

I follow the same pattern when shopping for cell phone plans, shoes, movie tickets, and car washes. Do you do something different?
