Reduced Working Week

From 1 April 2026, the working week for NHS Agenda for Change staff in Scotland will reduce from 37 to 36 hours for full‑time employees. Part‑time staff will receive a pro‑ra reduction in hours, with no loss of earnings. The State Hospital is committed to implementing this change; however, it may not be possible to fully transition on 1 April in all areas. In some departments, implementation may take longer to ensure patient safety and service continuity. If your department cannot safely accommodate the reduced hours from 1 April, you may be required to continue working 37.5 hours per week (pro‑ra for part‑time staff) until adjustments can be made. You will be remunerated accordingly. Our priority is to implement the 36‑hour working week across all areas as soon as it is safe and practical to do so.

NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among its workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society. It should be noted that The State Hospital is a high secure hospital and the current organisational position based on a risk assessment is that we welcome applications from people under the age of 18 for non‑clinical roles; however, to be eligible for a clinical role applicants must be 18 years and older. If you have any questions in relation to this please contact TSH.Jobs@nhs.scot.
