Agenda for Change
Agenda for Change is the name given to the new national NHS pay and terms and conditions system. This pay system was introduced from October 2004 and its aim was to introduce new pay bands and harmonised terms and conditions for NHS workers. The system has been negotiated by the health departments and the national joint staff side unions.
A UNISON ballot on Agenda for Change voted overwhelmingly to accept the proposals. Visit our Agenda 4 Change Page for more information.
