We will be monitoring the health and wellbeing of S&O staff that participate to ensure the incentive does not impact on their overall attendance at work. Attendance of participants will be reviewed at the end of this incentive. This may impact the ability for staff to be part of future incentives in order to support the health and wellbeing of our staff.
This will still be classed as a cancellation and something we strongly advise against. Please only book shifts you can commit to working to support reducing cancellations at the trust.
No, self isolation shifts are not included.
Agency staff can migrate to the bank to take advantage of the incentive, they would be able to join via the Bank Exclusive process. However they/we MUST give 4 weeks notice to their agency in writing. Once they have worked on the bank they cannot work at SO via the agency in the future.
