A decade of pay erosion: The destructive effect on UK nursing staff earnings and retention – October 2022 London Economics were commissioned by the Royal College of Nursing to undertake a detailed analysis of the evolution of registered nurses’ and nursing support workers’ NHS Agenda for Change pay over the last decade, across the UK.
The analysis provides an evidence-based assessment of the extent to which remuneration in the nursing profession has been impacted by years of pay stagnation and the current cost-of-living crisis. In addition, the analysis addresses a number of common misconceptions about the relative outcomes of nurses compared to other occupations; the particularly damaging effect of inflation on nurses; the relationship between turnover rates amongst the nursing profession and pay settlements; as well as the true costs to the Exchequer associated with ever-increasing nurse vacancies.
