Award all NHS staff an immediate 10% salary increase and a bonus.
Award all NHS staff an immediate10% salary increase and at the end of the Coronavirus epidemic a bonus for risking their lives to save others.
The Coronavirus virus has shown clearly how most of society takes NHS staff for granted and compared to many professions how underpaid they are. The government are rightly putting billions of pounds into the system to support business and the economy but the real front line fighting the virus are the people in the NHS in the front line putting their lives and those of their loved ones at risk every minute of every day and night. It’s time to recognise this financially.
