<p>In order to protect jobs and ensure fairness, we confirmed at the Spending Review
(2020) that there will be a pause to headline pay rises for the majority of public
sector workforces in 2021-22.</p><p>Given the unique impact of Covid-19 on our health
service, Government will continue to provide for pay rises for over 1 million NHS
workers. The NHS and Doctor and Dentists’ Pay Review Bodies will report as usual for
2021/22, and the Government will respond to their recommendations. The government
will also prioritise the lowest paid, with public sector workers earning less than
£24,000 in basic pay receiving a minimum £250 pro-rata increase. The Pay Review Bodies
will advise on how this should be implemented for the relevant workforces.</p>
