Temporary staff, most notably through staff banks, play an important role in the delivery of NHS services. With staffing pressures compounded by the pandemic, the need for a well managed flexible workforce is particularly notable.
So how can NHS organisations ensure temporary workers feel like an integral part of the team, particularly during these challenging times? How can organisations ensure that the logistics of employing temporary staff are well managed? How, in short, can the NHS make the most of temporary workers – and temporary workers feel that they are getting the most out of their work for the health service?
This HSJ webinar, run in association with SAP, brought together a panel to consider the answers to these questions.
A recording of the session is now available.
