Guest guest Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 For those in NHS employ, the news that a 'pension deal' has been agreed will (assuming there is no significant 'devil in the detail') be good news before Christmas. HSJ reports:"Unions representing NHS employees have agreed to suspend plans for further industrial action pending consideration of the govenment’s “final” offer on pensions.At a meeting this afternoon, the unions and Department of Health officials reached agreement in principle on a deal which includes concessions for staff up to 13.5 years away from retirement.The deal, which is subject to approval by union executive councils and members, involves an improved accrual rate and the retention of the Fair Deal, the policy that provides pensions protection for staff transferring out of the NHS."best wishes Cowleysarahcowley183@...http://myprofile.cos.com/S124021COn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
