Whatever they settle for will set the benchmark for the already delayed pay increase talks for this year.
Newly qualified doctors are leaving uni with exorbitant amounts of debt. It would be difficult to then try and retain them with a threat of financial punishment.
An easier solution would be to train all healthcare workers for free with a 5 year nhs contract at the end. If that’s not adhered to then a financial penalty or de-registration could be an option.
It’s not just newly qualified that are leaving for Oz/Canada, plenty of consultant qualified registrars can’t get positions and are taking their vast experience away.
How labour settle the junior doctors dispute will be an excellent insight into how they plan to manage the nhs in the future.
