Today we have entered into formal dispute with @MSEHospitals over cuts to doctors’ pay for work they do over and above their working week. With one week's notice, the new rates for this work have been cut by as much as 16%. This will only lead to understaffed wards, burned out doctors and increased risk to patient safety. We have urged the Trust to negotiate with us but they refuse. We have no other choice but to take action. bma.org.uk/bma-media-cent…


Trusts had months to prepare for backpay, it's unacceptable to delay payments before Christmas. Thanks to your action & work by BMA staff & reps @nottmhospitals and @Leic_hospital have agreed to add a payment run for 3/12 and 5/12. Time for Trusts in the region to follow suit.


"This is a moment to celebrate. It's undeniable proof that when we stand united, we win". Hear from your RDC co-chairs @Melissa_S_Ryan and @RossNieuwoudt about the back pay lump sum most of you will receive this month and our ongoing work to achieve full pay restoration.



bma.org.uk/bma-media-cent… “Doctors should not have to chase the NHS for their pay packets” And we shouldn’t have to pressure Trusts via X either. I’m guessing the list of Trusts failing to release all resident doctors’ backpay will surprise no one. Do better.



Doctors of Kettering, know your worth. You aren’t worth 1/3 less than a week ago. 100 doctors have taken the personal decision to cancel their shifts tomorrow in the face of these cuts, we stand with you alongside over 60 consultants at KGH.
