Winter Bank Incentive Payment

March 25, 2022

Thank you all for your contribution in ensuring that our hospitals, community sites and services were appropriately staffed and could deliver care that was safe and focused on meeting patient’s needs over this winter.

In December we offered a bank incentive bonus scheme and over April we will ensure that you receive that payment if you undertook additional shifts in line with the “Work 5 be paid for 6” initiative . The Trust did advise that these payments would be made at the end of March , however due to the complex nature of shift patterns and the requirement that additional shifts were required to be undertaken to ensure  eligibility staff will receive the bonus payments in their salaries from 8 April.

To ensure staff are paid appropriately, a small number of staff require some of their shifts to be validated by the hiring manager. Our bank team will be working with managers to ensure that this is completed in a timely manner,  however payments for staff requiring shift validation will be paid later in the month.

Again we would like to thank all our staff for their continued efforts over a difficult few months.
