Agenda for Change – On-Call Review

Back to all Motions

Conference
2008 Health Care Service Group Conference
Date
14 December 2007
Decision
Carried

Conference notes that the current unsocial hours review proposals exclude on-call arrangements that are to be dealt with separately.

Conference also notes that on-call arrangements have a particular relevance for minority staff groups, including those represented through UNISON’s Professional and Technical B Sector, and have a lesser impact on the majority of NHS staff and UNISON health membership.

Conference therefore instructs the Health Service Group Executive to determine the acceptability of any future harmonised on-call arrangements following due consultation with, and consideration of responses from Health Service Group branches, National Sectors and Regional Health Committees.
