Description
As part of the larger NHS Scotland Agenda for Change Review, the Scottish Terms and Conditions Committee (STAC) undertook to consider the issue of compensatory rest for staff who undertake on-call duties and produce guidance which would both ensure compliance with current Terms and Conditions and legal requirements, and promote best practice and consistency across the service.
Following partnership discussion, STAC has now agreed the guidance attached as an annex to this circular.
