The WRC found that a senior nurse’s request for regrading was not properly before it because the pay dispute concerned a body of workers. The decision was dated 20 August 2024; the merits were not decided. The nurse sought regrading from Grade 8 to Director of Nursing band 2, with retrospective pay and pension adjustments. The hospital said the Grade 8 scale reflected the role and that any change could affect comparable hospitals and public sector pay policy. The officer asked the parties to develop a proposal for a nursing-structure grade for national discussion.
