<p>Operational prison service staff in Band 2 are not prison officers but Operational
Support Grades (OSGs). The requested figures are available for years going back to
2013 and are presented below. Figures are for a contractual 37 hour week.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>2013</p></td><td><p>2014</p></td><td><p>2015</p></td><td><p>2016</p></td><td><p>2017</p></td><td><p>2018</p></td><td><p>2019</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>£16,076</p></td><td><p>£16,216</p></td><td><p>£16,379</p></td><td><p>£17,386</p></td><td><p>£17,561</p></td><td><p>£18,358</p></td><td><p>£18,726</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>
</p><p>All figures are based on the national rate of pay and include a premium for
required unsocial hours working. There are additional uplifts for the Outer and Inner
London Zones (typically £4,250 and £3,100 for legacy arrangements and £2,659 and £4,046
for modernised arrangements.</p><p> </p><p>While not reflected in the figures presented,
HMMPS has recently announced for a second year in a row above inflation pay rises
of over 2%. These increase are expected to be paid (and backdated to April) in the
Autumn. On top of that, we have made further pledges to recruit and retain prison
officers and managers, helping to make our prisons safer and reduce reoffending.</p>
