"Whipps Cross Hospital staff asked to give up annual leave"

"An east London hospital has urged staff to "sacrifice" some of their annual leave or do unpaid work to save money. Whipps Cross told its 3,400 staff that the NHS trust was facing a £4.5m deficit and needed to take "extraordinary financial measures". The offer was "purely voluntary" and would be a "one-off" measure that would not affect their terms and conditions, chief executive Cathy Geddes said.


Consultants are also being asked to do extra clinical sessions." -- BBC News website

What I would like to know is whether the consultants are being asked to "sacrifice" holiday time or pay - or is this just for the likes of the nursing staff etc? Personally if it was me being asked to work for nothing I would tell Whipps Cross "management" TO GO F*CK THEMSELVES!!!

Rant over.
