NHS Employers' evidence to the pay review bodies 2026/27

Read our evidence submissions to the Pay Review Body (NHS PRB) and the Doctors' and Dentists' Pay Review Body (DDRB) 2026/27.

31 October 2025

We have published our 2026/27 written evidence to the NHS PRB and DDRB. Our evidence has been informed by a continuous cycle of engagement with a full range of NHS organisations about their priorities, opportunities, and challenges.

Pay Education Hub

The Pay Education Hub helps employers understand the structure, history, and evolution of NHS pay systems. It supports them in communicating the full value of the NHS employment package to staff, enabling more informed conversations about pay, retention, and terms and conditions. By enhancing understanding of pay developments and governance, employers can more effectively engage their workforce and promote the benefits of working in the NHS.

We have published a new web page explaining how the NHS pay award process works, the employer's role in shaping evidence, and how final decisions are implemented across the system.
