Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment she has made of the potential merits of developing one job evaluation scheme across all NHS professions.
The national contracts that cover the National Health Service workforce are managed by different collective bargaining structures.
The Agenda for Change contract is managed by the NHS Staff Council and is underpinned by the NHS Job Evaluation Scheme. There is no equivalent job evaluation scheme for doctors and dentists’ terms and conditions.
