In addition, the employers have proposed exploratory conversations on the following aspects:
- “A review of the pay spine, including looking at the top end, and discussions about the link between how remuneration can be used to improve retention.”
- A review of all the 2013 role profiles to see whether any of the terminology needs refreshing to take account of, for example, technological advances and new ways of working that may have taken place over the last 10 years
