Nurses’ pay has been ‘severely eroded’ since 2010, study reveals
New research has announced that nurses’ wages have been £ 8,000 lower than 2010.
The analysis of the Royal Nursing College (RCN) showed that the wages of nurses are “seriously eroded için in recent years, especially for young personnel.
The report was published days after RCN gave votes of tens of thousands of nursing personnel under the supervision of RCN’s salary prize and announced the strike action in the following hours of this month.
RCN, for those at the beginning of their careers, “collapse” fees to be addressed, the government’s recruitment and a 10 -year health plan should be a priority, he said.
RCN UK General Manager Patricia Marquis said that the nursing personnel are tired of constant financial capture, usually struggling to pay rent or get housing ladder ”.
“Nursing is an incredible profession, but we are weighted up to the bottom of the NHS payment scales, and we have received one of the lowest awards this year, a situation that deepens the labor crisis and affects patient care. It must be the priority of the government, but it requires the government to do better in the wage of nursing.
“Our members use tens of thousands of votes and make their voices in this payment award.
“Ministers should realize that the only logical choice left to them is directly to negotiate with the largest health labor force.
“It is time to offer better wages and modernization for nursing staff.”
BMA announced last week that residents who were previously known as young doctors in the UK will be released for five days in a row on July 25 due to a wage dispute with the government.
BMA said that discussions will start negotiations on how to prevent the strike of this month.
The Spokesperson of the Ministry of Health and Social Care (DHSC): “BMA has accepted the meeting offer of the Health Secretary and we expect this to happen this week.”
Mr. Streeting is reported to sympathize for doctors to improve working conditions, but it is reported that it will not be salaries.
