More than one million NHS staff in England will start to receive 5% pay rises and one-off payments between £1,250 and £1,600 from today.
RCN members impacted by the deal are voting on whether to take further strike action, with the ballot due to close on June 23.
This will be followed by a strike by Unite members employed at the Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust, including paramedics and call handlers, striking on June 2 for up to seven hours from 2pm. RCN executive director for pay Colin Poolman said: ‘Our members have spoken loud and clear - their pay is far from fair and appropriate.
He added: ‘Nursing staff are fighting for their patients, and the very future of our NHS - not just for their pay.’
