- Decision
- Carried
Conference believes that a major incentive to outsourcing is the belief that it is possible to obtain cheaper services by giving outsourced workers worse pay and conditions than the ‘core’ NHS workforce.
Conference believes it is absolutely essential to submit pay claims each year to major outsourcing companies with the aim of achieving at least parity with directly employed NHS staff.
Conference instructs the Health Group Executive to work with stewards representing these workers and organisers assigned to work in this area to build the strongest possible participation and support for these annual claims which should be submitted alongside the NHS pay determination process enabling effective joint action to be taken.
