Agenda for Change
Agenda for Change is the name given to the new NHS national pay and grading system. It was introduced in 2004 to harmonise pay and terms and conditions for all NHS workers other than doctors. The system was negotiated by government health departments and UNISON, together with other health unions.
(18/12/08) The NHS Pay Review Body has decided not to ask the government to review the pay settlement for 2009/10. They will however undertake a review of all the available evidence in autumn 2009 to consider whether to seek a remit from the Secretary of State to review the pay settlement contained in the agreement for 2010/11.
(27/10/08) Staff side unions submitted their joint evidence to the NHS Pay Review Body on 27 October 2008.
UNISON has launched its "Re-Open Now" campaign to build support among NHS staff for re-opening the 2009/10 pay rates.
Interserve and UNISON reach agreement on the implementation of Agenda for Change from October 2006, for employees at UCLH.
