Independent sector and non-NHS staff

The RCN believes all health and social care employers need to have a pay system that is competitive with the NHS.

Some are based on NHS structures, some are set independently and in some instances pay rates are dictated by budgets.

We anticipate that improvements in NHS pay will have a positive effect on pay in other sectors.

Changes to pension contributions for staff working in the NHS in Scotland are anticipated this year.
