Scottish government offers 4 pay rise to NHS staff

摘要

The Scottish government has offered NHS Scotland Agenda for Change staff-up to pay band 7-a 4 pay rise. If the offer is accepted, the Scottish government said in a statement that it “would represent the biggest single year increase in pay for NHS staff since devolution” . While pay increases usually come into effect from the beginning of the financial year, the Scottish government would backdate the 2021–2022 increase to 1 December 2020 to recognise the pressure on staff owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.
