NHS failing to hit key AfC deadline
 Over three quarters of NHS organisations have failed to hit a crucial Agenda for Change progress target, reports an article in the HSJ.
At a recent conference, DoH director of workforce Andrew Foster announced that little more than a fifth of organisations hit the DoH key milestone target of transferring at least half of their staff on to the new pay deal by the end of last month.
He added that organisations 'owed it to their staff' and to the credibility of HR to 'have substantial completion' of Agenda for Change implementation by December. The use of the phrase 'substantial completion' is the first signal the DoH has relaxed its expectations of full implementation by the autumn, in light of slow progress.
