I work in the NHS. My post (like many similar and identical others) has just been agreed for an upgrade to the next payscale. Unlike the other postholders who have simply had their posts re-graded, I have been told I may have to interview for my post. And that it will go out to advert.This is because certain senior people have been involved in this upgrade who cannot interfere in other post decisions. Therefore different 'rule' for this post.
This is a permanent position I have held for a few years. I have 20 years consecutive NHS employment with no issues, execllent appraisals etc. The job title and description, duties etc will remain completely unchanged.
Where do I stand here? What happens if I apply for it and don't get it? I think this may be against employment law but need advice please.
