National<\/strong> Trust to cut 550 jobs as costs become ‘increasingly tough’<\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n A CUH spokesperson said: \u201cLike all NHS Trusts, we have been asked to reduce the cost of our support functions this year to April 2022 levels.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cWe are taking all possible steps to minimise redundancies, through redeployment, natural turnover and a mutually agreed resignation scheme.\n<\/p>\n
\n “These steps are helping to reduce the number of redundancies required.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cWe recognise that this is a challenging and uncertain time for staff and have multiple support services in place.\n<\/p>\n
\n “During this process we will continue to consult with trade unions on ways to avoid or reduce redundancies.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\n UNISON Eastern head of health Caroline Hennessy\u00a0said: \u201cThe government\u2019s 10-year plan is make or break for the NHS.\n<\/p>\n
\n “But delivering improved care and using better technology relies on administrators, comms officers, operations managers and many other expert staff now anxiously awaiting their P45s.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cEven without ambitious plans for the future, these jobs are needed to keep the trust running.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Frontline staff rely on support workers to deliver care.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cThe NHS needs real investment, not savage cuts, to meet the challenges ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"UNISON say\u00a0redundancies\u00a0being made by the Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust are in\u00a0response to the government spending cuts.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":258538,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4316],"tags":[105,4348,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-258537","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-healthcare","8":"tag-health","9":"tag-healthcare","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114839488607897823","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=258537"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258537\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/258538"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=258537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=258537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=258537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
