Major breakthrough on safe staffing levels for AHPs CSP are urging members to contribute to a review that will shape new allied health professionals (AHP) safe staffing guidance in England- a key non-pay win secured after the 2023 CSP strike. 

‘Your action helped make this happen, now your evidence can help ensure the final guidance truly reflects the needs of physiotherapy and wider AHP services.’

NHS England has commissioned an evidence review that will help shape new AHP safe staffing guidance.

➡️ Banning exploitative zero hours contracts
➡️ Sick pay for all from day one
➡️ Expanding paternity, parental & bereavement leave
➡️ Strengthening protections for pregnant women, whistle-blowers and victims of sexual harassment
➡️ Making flexible working the default
➡️ Repealing Tory anti-union laws

🚨BREAKING: Employment Rights Bill passes in the House of Lords and will become law.

This is an historic day for working people across the country, and the trade unions who represent them.

National Audit Office report highlights key role of physiotherapy in frailty care The CSP was interviewed along with other health bodies to inform the findings and conclusions of the report. 

'We know what works. Physiotherapy-led falls and frailty interventions save lives, maintain independence, and economists forecast they will save the NHS £534m over the next 5 years.' - Rob Yeldham

Sikh woman raped in 'racially aggravated attack' speaks out The young woman, who said she was on her way to work when the attack took place, has thanked everyone for their "love and support" during a "difficult" time.

Racist rhetoric has dire consequences.

Raping a young woman in a ‘racially aggravated attack’ speaks volumes about the far right’s “claims” to care about women & girls’ safety.

Those fronting up far right politics know it’s just a pretence for their own hateful agenda.

Reforms to fix Band 8 pay gap at risk, ministers warned Unions are warning the government it risks derailing "comprehensive" reforms to fix the Agenda for Change pay band structure, including the lack of an incentive to promotion to Band 8a.

'It's back-to-front to ask the PRB to decide how much should be allocated to changes when we haven't yet agreed what those reforms should be, or how much they would cost.'

Our warning to the government covered by @hsj.co.uk.
