A lump sum of at least £1,655 has failed to reach the pay packets of some 'bank' nurses, who fill rota gaps.
Bank staff are not employed on the national Agenda for Change contract other nurses and healthcare staff fall under.
Some bank workers are paid the same rates as staff at the same employer, with some holiday and sick pay. An official said: "Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust reviewed the contracts of its bank-only staff and determined that they should receive the one-off payment as per contractual obligations."But the trusts that have chosen to have to do this from their own resources.Unite says the government should extend funding made available for trusts to make the payments to staff, to allow them to include bank workers.
The NHS Confederation has called on ministers to intervene, warning there is a danger of a two-tier system being created.
