More than 10,000 NHS staff have been made redundant in the past three financial years as a result of the government’s commissioning reforms, according to official figures.
New information was published by the Department of Health on Tuesday in its final “people tracker” document, which collects workforce information on the reform transition.
It also reveals that the proportion of those made redundant who are female was slightly bigger than the proportion of women in the overall commissioning workforce, according to LGC’s sister title Health Service Journal.
The tracker reported that primary care trusts and strategic health authorities made 2,394 redundancies in 2012-13. That followed an estimated 5,600 in 2010-11 and 2,100 in 2011-12 – bringing the total to more than 10,000.
