Last week saw the publication of “Guidance on Applying Compensatory Rest Related to On-Call for Staff Employed Under Agenda for Change Terms & Conditions”, published as part of the NHS Scotland Agenda for Change (AfC) Review, via the Scottish Terms and Conditions Committee (STAC). The RCM pushed for its development to ensure that midwives and other AfC staff were effectively supported in achieving adequate rest should they be called upon to support a contingency of service.
