NHSP Incentives update

NHSP - Allocate on Arrival incentive

Our £50 Allocate on Arrival incentive has been extended until Wednesday 30 November.  Due to current pressures, the £50 incentive will increase to £100 for the late shift only up to and including Sunday 16 October. 

Allocate on Arrival is available to Registered Nurses and Healthcare Assistants booking shifts via the NHSP Wards at Sunderland Royal Hospital (including allocation on arrival to ICAR and Hospice) and South Tyneside District Hospital.

In order for NHSP to be able to calculate shifts that are eligible for the incentive, timesheets worked within the qualifying period must be authorised and released within the timeframe below (see payment schedule below).

Shifts worked    Timesheets authorised and released by    Pay date
01/09 – 30/09      9th October                                                    21st October 
01/10 – 31/10      6th November                                               18th November 
01/11 – 30/11      4th December                                                16th December 

Please note the above timescales relate solely to the ‘allocate on arrival’ incentive payment. Payment for hours worked will continue to be made each week in accordance with the normal NHSP timescales.

 Incentive Terms and Conditions

• Staff must be registered with NHSP.
• Staff will be eligible for the incentive payments once NHSP has confirmed that shifts have been worked in the qualifying period.
• *Please note – the Allocate on Arrival incentive payment is subject to the usual tax and national insurance deductions.

These are temporary arrangements only and will be continually reviewed.

NHSP - £250 Incentive Scheme 

Our £250 incentive for nursing staff working NHSP shifts on Ward E53 and Ward F62 at Sunderland Royal Hospital remains in place until Friday 21 October.

Staff working shifts between Friday 9 September and Friday 21 October will be eligible for a £250 incentive payment for every 37.5 hours worked during this period up to the value of £750. This includes early, late, long day or night shifts.  The incentive payment is only open to Registered Nurses and Health Care Assistants who are registered with NHSP. Staff can also continue to pick up the NHSP Allocate on Arrival shifts where an additional incentive will be paid to support wards that require additional nurse staffing.

In order for NHSP to be able to calculate shifts that are eligible for the £250 incentive, timesheets worked within the qualifying period must be authorised and released within the timeframe below (see payment schedule below for staff that meet the 37.5 hour target for the NHSP incentive).
