Consultation response 14 November 2023.
We believe that the introduction of minimum service levels in hospital services that arise from the Strikes (Minimum Service Levels) Bill will undermine existing well established systems for ensuring adequate service during any industrial action and will severely affect our members' fundamental rights to take industrial action to defend their pay and conditions.
Introducing minimum service levels in hospital services will have the opposite effect to that ostensibly intended by the government. We agree with the TUC that the Strikes (Minimum Service Levels) Bill is unfair, undemocratic, and likely to be in breach of our international legal commitments
