title: Incremental rises: a thing of the past?
abstract: This year's focus on a '3 per cent for all' pay rise may be a reflection of the fact that more and more nurses are reaching the top increments of their grade and are therefore unable to obtain a pay increase through the annual increment system. James Buchan looks at the implications of relying on the Review Body awards as the only way of securing a pay rise.
