UNISON survey: Health branch questionnaire on deficits, cuts and redundancies
The government is trying to play down the impact of the deficits on NHS jobs and services in England. As part of our Keep the NHS Working campaign, UNISON needs to gather evidence to show the true extent of trusts' attempts to balance their books which are often resulting in unfilled vacancies, frozen posts, cuts in training budgets, cut backs on agency staff, and cuts in services. Please help us to build a clearer picture by completing this short questionnaire.
