Do you work at the North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust (NCIC)? We'll be there from 14 – 15 October to talk to you about job evaluation and the band 5 review in England.
How much do you know about job evaluation, the new national nursing job profiles, and how this affects how much you get paid?
We'll be visiting sites across NCIC on 14 and 15 October to speak to you about all this and more. We'll be visiting:
14 October: Cumberland Infirmary, Carlisle, CA2 7HY | 10am-3pm
15 October: West Cumberland Hospital, Whitehaven, CA28 8JG | 10am-3pm
15 October: Lillyhall Business Centre, Jubilee Rd, Workington CA14 4HA | 3pm-4pm
Come and speak to us about job evaluation at our stand in the main entrance at Cumberland Infirmary on 14 October and in the main entrance at the West Cumberland Hospital on 15 October. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask us about what you can be doing now and what to expect.
Also, look out for us around your workplace where we'll be speaking to you and handing out further information and resources.

Why this matters
Last year, new national nursing profiles were published; these are used as part of the job evaluation process. This, in turn, determines the pay bands for all NHS roles on Agenda for Change contracts.
Your job description is a crucial part of this and needs to be an accurate reflection of your role.
The government has instructed NHS employers in England to review every band 5 job description, but this is just the start. All nursing jobs should be reviewed or have recently undergone a review against these new profiles – no matter which band you’re on.
This is your opportunity to speak to us and highlight your concerns so you feel empowered to engage with the job evaluation process.
Multiple locations
Who will I be able to speak to?
During our visits, in addition to our staff and representatives, you'll be able to meet the pay delivery officer for your region.
