RCN opens online consultation from today (8 August) until 16 September to give members their chance to say if pay award of 5.5% is ‘enough of a start on our journey’. Nursing staff are being asked to vote on whether they accept or reject the NHS pay award. The RCN has launched a consultation on the 2024-25 pay award for its members on Agenda for Change (AfC) contracts and AfC terms and conditions in England, including commissioned services for the NHS.
