The British Medical Association (BMA) outlines the pay offer for SAS doctors working in Wales. A key highlight is the introduction of the Specialist grade, which allows eligible Specialty Doctors to apply for regrading if they meet specific criteria.
Key Points:
- Transfer to Specialist Role: SAS doctors in Wales can apply to be regraded to the new Specialist grade if they can justify the transition. This offers a clear path for career progression.
- Pay and Benefits: The pay offer includes improvements that align with creating the new grade, ensuring that regrading comes with financial recognition.
- Support for Development: The changes aim to enhance career development and ensure that SAS doctors’ contributions are adequately recognized and rewarded.
This reform is part of broader efforts to modernise contracts and provide fairer opportunities for career advancement in the Welsh NHS system.
