91ÌÒÉ«

91ÌÒÉ« issues guidance on the criteria for awarding bonus payments and the amounts that should be awarded for each grade.

91ÌÒÉ« employs Clinical Academic staff who are employed on NHS National terms and conditions. Some Clinical Academics receive Excellence or Impact Awards, which are not under 91ÌÒÉ«’s control or funded by 91ÌÒÉ«.

These are, in effect, bonus payments awarded by the Department of Health & Social Care to senior Clinical Academics based on their clinical and academic contribution. Although 91ÌÒÉ« does not decide these bonuses, they affect the bonus pay gap at 91ÌÒÉ« because a higher proportion of senior Clinical Academic staff are male. Therefore, Clinical Excellence Awards have been analysed separately.
