Consultants pay: 2024 to 2025
We are delivering an agreed one year pay deal for NHS Scotland Consultant staff.
In order to achieve this, we have committed an overall financial envelope of £124.9 million for consultants’ pay in 2024 to 2025.
The pay deal will see a 10.5% uplift to all basic pay with £5.7 million invested to uplift Discretionary Points from £3,204 to £3,600 per point.
Allowances and recruitment and retention premiums which increase in line with pay uplifts will be uprated as appropriate.
This offer applies to all NHS Scotland consultants and relevant clinical academics.
The pay deal will be backdated to 1 April 2024.
As part of the agreement there is also a commitment to undertake further work via task and finish groups under the Joint Negotiation Committee between Scottish Government, BMA Scotland and NHS Employers. These groups will seek to conclude in 2025 to 2026 and will be tasked with discussions:
- on the balance of different elements of the job plan for Consultants to facilitate attractive employment opportunities within NHS Scotland and to enable retention of the existing workforce
- to agree a national rate for internal short-term cover to improve continuity of care and help alleviate agency and locum spend within NHS Scotland
