Hospital maintenance staff win 4.5% pay deal

NHS maintenance workers whose jobs were outsourced to privateer Serco have won an inflation-busting 4.5 per cent pay rise.
Fifty electricians and plumbers working at Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital were celebrating the victory today following their union Unite’s announcement.
The union said that the rise went “some way” to reducing the pay gap with directly employed NHS estates staff at other Norfolk hospitals.
