Community health workers at the dawn of a new era: 8. Incentives and remuneration.

Our findings support the recent guidelines for CHWs released by WHO in 2018 that call for CHWs to receive a financial package that corresponds to their job demands, complexity, number of hours worked, training, and the roles they undertake. The guidelines also call for written agreements that specify the CHW's role and responsibilities, working conditions, remuneration, and workers' rights.
