This still remains the case with this edition. It differs from the first mainly to the extent that it includes some references in the text, and engages with some of the literature in a more direct fashion, while including recommended reading. These additions reflect the fact that the first edition appears to have been more widely recommended in universities as an introductory text for undergraduates than was intended or anticipated. Nevertheless, these additions are highly selective, and this has been intentional.

Copyright and re-use policy See http://shura.shu.ac.uk/information.html Sheffield Hallam University Research Archive http://shura.shu.ac.uk Embedding consultant radiographer roles within radiology departments: A framework for success J Nightingale; M Hardy; B Snaith Abstract Objectives: Many organisations struggle to clearly differentiate the radiographer consultant role from advanced or specialist practice, with newly appointed consultant practitioners often ill- prepared for working at this level. This article discusses the design, implementation and validation of an outcomes framework for benchmarking competencies for trainee or new-in-post consultant radiographers. Methods: Five experienced radiographers from different clinical specialisms were seconded to a twelve month consultant trainee post, guided by a locally-devised outcomes framework. A longitudinal qualitative study explored, from the radiographers' perspective, the impact of the outcomes framework on the transition to consultant practice and beyond. Data collection included semi-structured interviews (months 1, 6 and 12), validation via a focus group (month 18) and a group interview (5 years). Results: Early interactions with framework objectives were mechanistic, but as participants better understood the role more creative approaches emerged.

  • Taxpayer Funding of Trade Unions 2012-13
    Research Note 140 | 10 September 2014 Taxpayer funding of trade unions 2012-13 Last year Cabinet Office Minister Francis Maude announced plans to reduce the amount of facility time taken by Civil Servants on Whitehall. This will cut the subsidy that unions receive at taxpayers’ expense. There is still be a substantial subsidy however, and the reforms do not yet apply to the broader public sector. As of April 2013, the Cabinet Office has been publishing facility time figures for central government departments online, an encouraging step towards transparency. Earlier TaxPayers’ Alliance research in this area revealed the extent of trade union subsidies across the public sector for the first time. This research updates that evidence of the huge amounts of taxpayers’ money given to trade unions through direct funding or paid staff time from public sector bodies. It contains information about the number of public sector bodies automatically deducting trade union subscriptions in the payroll process, often without charging the unions for that additional administrative support. The key findings of this research are: . Trade unions received a subsidy of at least £108 million at taxpayers’ expense in 2012-13. This is made up of an estimated £85 million in paid staff time, plus £23 million in direct payments. At least 2,841 full-time equivalent (FTE) public sector staff worked on trade union duties at taxpayers’ expense in 2012-13. The number of full-time equivalent staff provided to trade unions is 2.5 times as large as the workforce of HM Treasury.1 . 344 public sector organisations (out of the 1,074 surveyed) either did not fully record facility time or did not record it at all in 2012-13.

  • NHS Trade Unions Working Together to Improve NHS Pay
    NHS trade unions working together to improve NHS pay Staff Side Evidence to the NHS Pay Review Body 2018-191 Summary and recommendations The value of the Agenda for Change pay framework has diminished significantly over the last seven years, with NHS staff suffering a real terms fall in earnings of between 10 and 20%. There is now a consensus across most political parties, economists and NHS employer bodies that the pay cap must be lifted. NHS staff must be awarded a meaningful pay rise which starts to restore lost earnings, keeps up with the ever rising cost of living and enables the recruitment and retention of a highly skilled and motivated workforce. We are calling for a fully funded UK-wide pay settlement which will: 1) Enable NHS staff to keep up with costs by matching RPI inflation 2) Start to restore pay lost during the years of austerity, giving a consolidated sum of £800 to all 3) Invest in improving the NHS pay structure, making it better able to support workforce productivity improvements These proposals were clearly set out in a joint staff side letter to the Chancellor of the Exchequer in September 2017 (see appendix). The principles underpinning this three-part claim are that sufficient additional funding should be provided by Government with spending spread between real pay uplifts, restorative awards, and funding a restructure in line with the NHS trade unions’ preferred pay system. The NHS trade unions have commissioned an independent body to cost our claim for 2018-19. Incomes Data Research demonstrate that the claim would cost approximately £2.2 billion, an increase of approximately 6.3% to the non-medical paybill.
