Concerned about a post?

You can report posts to the RCM (head and shoulders icon).

Healthcare unions have expressed disappointment at the NHS Pay Review Body's decision not to ask the government to reopen the three-year pay deal.

The review body points out that the labour market has rapidly weakened, with the unemployment rate rising. Thus, in this more uncertain climate the NHS is appearing a more attractive employer.

What do you think? Are midwives buckling under the pressure of the credit crunch or should they just be happy to have a job and that they are guaranteed some sort of pay rise in 2009?
