The NHS is in Crisis

The NHS is in a staffing emergency with over 110,000 vacancies, spiralling workloads and a record patient backlog. 

That’s why together we’re calling on the government to put NHS pay right to keep dedicated staff in their jobs and ensure more patients can be treated more quickly.

What will it take to put NHS pay right?

In our autumn survey, more than 40,000 NHS staff  told  UNISON that you want: 

All staff working in the NHS need a proper pay rise to keep up with rising living costs and to provide a decent reward for the challenging work you do. Over a third of members report that they cannot get through the working day without worrying about finances and this cannot go on. We need to fix problems up and down the pay scale to kick poverty pay out of the NHS for good.
