Web site: 'Well done on the stream of quality stuff coming out at the moment – it is very impressive.'

Less than 40% of NHS workers are satisfied with their level of pay, according to the latest annual staff survey carried out between October and November 2016. This proportion has not changed since 2015. Three-quarters of staff agree that they are able to make suggestions to improve the work of their team or department, and over 70% feel there are frequent opportunities for them to show initiative at work.
Danny Mortimer, chief executive of NHS Employers, said:
‘Despite incredible pressures on our workforce, their commitment and resilience shines through . . . There are areas of real concern, however. Organisations across the NHS must do more to address bullying and the poorer experience of black and minority ethnic colleagues. Members of the public who abuse our staff must know they will be held accountable for their actions.’
