UK Junior Doctors Secure 22.3% Pay Rise Over Two Years in Labour Government Deal to End Strikes
Jul 29, 2024, 11:36 AM
Junior doctors in England have reached an agreement with the government for a significant pay increase aimed at ending prolonged strike actions. The deal, which has been confirmed by Chancellor Rachel Reeves, will see junior doctors' earnings rise by 22.3% over two years. This breakthrough comes after extensive negotiations between the government and the British Medical Association (BMA). The BMA's junior doctors committee has agreed to put the offer to its members. The estimated cost of this pay rise is around £1 billion a year. This development marks a significant step towards resolving the long-running pay dispute and restoring stability within the NHS. The Labour government has been in office for three weeks and the pay rise includes a backdated increase of 4.05% for 2023-24.
