Professional fees must be paid by employer.
Where a worker is required by his/her employer to register with a regulatory, professional or other body, the employer must pay the associated costs.
This would apply not only to public sector workers who currently pay out of their own pocket to be registered at the demand of the employer, but also private sector workers where the employer demands registration.
Currently nurses and other health professionals pay high fees simply to be on a register to protect the public as required by the employer. Not all NHS groups are required to register however, so the current scheme is unfair. The employer should be made to pay all fees associated with registration where the employer demands such registration.
