NHS being recommended 1% pay rise

The economy is fucked mate, it'll take years to recover. Then people in such public sector roles can expect to see pay rises. There's other thankless key workers such as prison officers who get forgotten about yearly, and I believe they've not received a pay rise for years.

When you join a frontline healthcare role, guess what? It has the chance to be dangerous and busy. NHS can't have their cake and eat it. Same if you got a lad who joined the armed forces and then got called up to the frontline in a warzone and didn't want to go. Why sign up then? There's plenty of other bodies out there willing to take their place and would die to be in their position.

I have genuine massive respect to anybody within the NHS who's kept their job and put in hard work and long hours under distress. However, it does not entitle you to an automatic pay rise unfortunately.

Disgusting as usual , govs of all colours take advantage of nhs staff , this last year has been tough , a lot moved out of their houses and away from family to keep them and the patients and staff safe , kicked in the bollocks yet again , boris for you , fake concern and lies

Been offered the same at our place despite this horrible pandemic helping them record ridiculous profits.

Of course it was rejected.

Kick in the bollocks for everyone at the NHS

I'm not sure anyone should expect a rise this year ,times are hard, I'm certainly not expecting one this year .

With the sacrifices these people have made, especially over the last year or so, they should be getting a 100 % rise. 1% is just taking the piss.

This is why this country is shit. A summer of patronising them with clapping and "look at me" gestures and then sod all on the other side.
