ali Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Before I left the UK, we'd had to fight long and hard to have our job recognised as a band 7. Earlier in the year my old colleagues said the trust were trying to take their band 7 off them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest30038 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Looks like more health workers will be looking to head out to greener pastures. Bridget got 2 more emails today from ex colleagues looking to come here but they don't qualify due to age so have to look for sponsorship. kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest31881 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 That is.... well ......I am totaly speachless. The years health workers have fought for decent pay and conditions and its just wiped out with the stroke of a pen. I am just gobsmacked..........

ellasdaddy Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 It really is bad i feel most sorry for the HCA's they dont get paid much as it is and to take more off them is shocking i know i couldnt do my clinic without one of them, i think if anything they should be getting a pay rise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH ropey, i not got much sympathy for most public sector workers. My sister has a pub just accross the road from a council office, the workers would come in for their lunch and the stories of slothdom would turn your stomach. Front line doctors and nurses I have the greatest respect for and believe they are worth their weight in gold. But next time you (nothing personal:wink:) complain about a pay "freeze" count yourself luck that you aint a bricky out in the cold laying concrete blocks down a trench ankle deep in water for less money you where getting 1o years ago.

mr luvpants Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Is this just your Trust or is it a blanket pay reduction across the country? when is it meant to kick in?

Guest ebstar Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I have now finnished work (theatre nusre) to prepare for the move so this now won't affect me.I am totally disgusted at this news and can only imagine how you and others are feeling.They don't seem to care about the invaluable work we do and that most NHS workers regulary stay longer than their allotted hours to make sure both patients and collegues are ok. They expect more to be done in less hours with fewer staff.This could be the final nail in the coffin for the NHS.AARRRggggHHh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife finished at 9.30, it's now approaching 11pm and she ain't home yet (work is 10 minutes away). The difference though is that she loves her work and knows that she is appreciated when she often stays late. She doesn't get rewarded with overtime for staying but can take what they call "toil" ie she can take the time back (leave early) when things are quieter. kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellasdaddy Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Im not sure if ts a blanket NHS thing but i doubt it is it says t takes effect on the 15th November 2010. I should have done my last shift last sunday but agreed to stay on till mid december because they wont find a replacement for me, i was going to just go but then i felt bad our clinic is the only one in the south west to do nerve condution studies which means if their is nobody doing the clinics their could potentially be loads of people out their with undiagnosed motor neurone disease The NHS really neads to get its butt in gear i asked my boss why i had no replacement as yet and he said it was because the big hospital bosses wont finance it, completly shocking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you would be wise to think about what you are saying before going off on one. You will find that i do indeed have it in for some public sector workers like teachers and some civil servants etc, however i have made exceptions for doctors and nurses as i believe they should be the exception to the rule, i think a pay freeze would have been more than adequate.Also as far as builders are concerned i as a tax payer do not pay for them out of my taxes as i do for public sector workers so if i want to have my say on it i feel as though that is my right.

Guest sunnyday Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I am in shock that pay cuts are being given instead of a freeze! The annoying thing is how badly things are being run and the money being wasted, I am sooooooo beyond glad I'm out of the NHS! My sympathies go to anyone being affected in this way, you must feel absolutely soul destroyed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelP Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 The government has just announced that it is effectively abolishing NICE, the 'value for money' committee that stopped drug companies charging extortionate amounts for NHS medicines. Big Pharma gets a blank cheque, NHS employees get a pay cut/pay freeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
