Notes | The majority of clinical academics have substantive paid higher education contracts and honorary unpaid contracts. These contracts should be coded 1 'HEI contract and NHS Honorary Contract (excluding those with contracts in Nursing and Midwifery purely for the purpose of supervision of placements)'. Some have separate paid contracts with both a HEI and an NHS employer (often called A+B contracts). These contracts should be coded 2 'Separate HEI and NHS contracts'. A few individuals have genuinely joint HEI/NHS contracts. These contracts should be coded 3 'Joint HEI/NHS or primary/community healthcare contracts'. In each case the contracts together constitute employment in a single job agreed by two employers. NHS Honorary contracts can be held by clinical academics employed by HEIs in a research and/or teaching capacity, and who also provide services for NHS patients, in NHS facilities. |
