Anger over NHS managers’ pay
By politics.co.uk staff
NHS managers have received an average pay increase of seven per cent, a new report has found.
The Incomes Data Services report into boardroom pay found senior managers have an average salary of £147,500.
Chief executives earned seven times the salary of nurses, the report found.
Unions have questioned the above-inflation salary rises when ordinary workers face lower rises and tough years ahead.
Senior managers cite the complex nature of NHS trusts and argue that only a select few individuals have the necessary skills to successfully manage such immense systems.
