Rejected petition Review the NHS Pay Deal. Some NHS staff have been 'mis-sold' and let down.

During the consultation over NHS pay, unions told their members that they would recieve a minimum of a 3% uplift in July and this would be back-paid from April.

Therefor the Government need to review this to make it fair for all NHS employees and action taken to the unions who were aware.

More details

Guidance provided for RCN reps last week confirms that the union was aware of the correct information but failed to highlight it to its members during the consultation.

The initial increase for most other staff will typically be 1.5% until they reach their normal incremental pay date.” 

Janet Davies RCN said; “It has come to my attention in the last 24 hours that the deal was not as straightforward as we said
“I can assure you that I am demanding answers for you.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you'd like the NHS pay deal to be reviewed but we're not sure exactly what you mean by "action taken to the unions who were aware".

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the UK Government and Parliament to revise the current pay deal and review how proposed pay deals are communicated.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
