Chase Farm Final Configuration

BEH Workforce Changes Workforce changes: Strategy implementation will require some staff to relocate

from the Chase Farm Hospital site to Barnet Hospital and North Middlesex Hospital sites. The Trust aims to retain affected staff by redeploying into suitable vacancies where possible. Workforce plans are being developed to determine exact numbers and staff affected.

Financial implications: The strategy has around £30m of workforce reductions post BEH in 2013/14. We currently have 574 vacancies and 12% turnover.

Change management: The Trust will adopt robust change management principles in accordance with the Trust’s Policy, legislation and best practice including: – Timely and meaningful communication and consultation– Regular meetings with union representatives– Mechanisms to support staff through the change
