Head of Employment Relations, Education and Professional Support, Martin Furlong, said:
“We were a part of the negotiations with the Scottish Government for the 2024/2025 pay offer, and we note the offer of a pay uplift of 5.5%. We will now follow our standard internal processes before responding. This includes consulting with our members in Scotland about the offer and we will be writing to our NHS members in Scotland shortly. We will continue to keep our NHS members in Scotland informed.”
