Criteria for Pay Progression. You will not receive pay progression automatically, but it is expected that you will progress according to the criteria set out in Schedule 13 of the TCS, and in accordance with transitional arrangements. We will make all reasonable efforts to support you in meeting the criteria for pay progression.
Criteria for Pay Progression. 3.1. Progress through the thresholds will not be automatic, although we expect the great majority of consultants will progress. Progression will depend on a consultant having in each of the relevant years between thresholds: • Met the time and service commitments in their job plans • Met the personal objectives in their job plan or – where this is not achieved for reasons beyond the individual consultant’s control – having made every reasonable effort to do so • Participated satisfactorily in annual appraisal, job planning and objective setting • Worked towards any changes identified as being necessary to support achievement of the organisation’s service objectives in the last job plan review • Allowed the NHS (in preference to any other organisation) to utilise the first portion of any additional capacity they have • Met required standards of conduct governing the relationship between private practice and NHS commitments (see Annex D)
3.2. Objectives will be expected to reflect different, developing phases in consultants’ careers.
