The NHS TCS Network, delivered by the employment relations team at NHS Employers, comprises both strategic and operational employer representation from across England, who influence and inform on national guidance, negotiations and key deliverables, ensuring that the operational HR viewpoint is accounted for.

The network:  

  • enables NHS Employers to engage with senior workforce staff on issues relevant to the NHS Staff Council relating to terms and conditions of service, pay and workforce
  • ensures service provision, advice and expertise provided to the service by NHS Employers is fit for purpose and covers both strategic and operational viewpoints   
  • facilitates employers to share good practice and discuss current issues. 

What our members think of the network:

"Informative network that is interesting, providing a chance to be innovative to influence policy and application, together with colleagues working in all areas of the NHS".   

"A network of NHS workforce professionals that has an active role in shaping and influencing National terms and conditions". 

"A brilliant network where you are able to ask anything about how others interpret the terms and conditions".
