Enabling staff movement toolkit updated
The resource published by NHS England helps employers with enabling staff to move efficiently and safely between NHS organisations.
As part of NHS England's enabling staff movement (ESM) programme, the toolkit that has been developed to support this are of work has been updated to reflect the objectives set out in the NHS Long Term Workforce Plan and the People Plan.
ESM delivers solutions to ease the movement of staff across the NHS. It improves staff experience as they move, as well as supporting staff to be simply and quickly released to deliver care where it is most needed at the earliest opportunity.
The toolkit was first launched in 2019. The latest version restates the recommendations and relevant guidance by:
- setting out the different types of staff movement
- introducing the NHS digital staff passport, its role in the digitalisation of the process and plans for further development
- adding to the useful information, sample warranty text and example agreements to help with setting up a workforce sharing arrangement for temporary staff movements.
