Update on 2023-24 new JNCHES pay round

Many colleagues will be aware that 2023/24 national pay negotiations have been brought forward, with a series of meetings taking place during January.

On 25 January, the Universities and Colleges Employers Association (UCEA) put forward an improved, final pay offer on behalf of participating employers, including Southampton.

The final offer provides for increases of between 5.0% and 7.0% to the spinal points we use at Southampton. Implementation would be staged such that uplifts of between 2.0% and 2.8% would be payable earlier than usual, with effect from 1 February 2023, with the balance payable from the normal pay settlement implementation date on 1 August 2023.

Full details of the UCEA offer.

In combination with the investment made independently by the University to enhance our Level 1 to 6 and Level 7 pay scales with effect from 1 January 2023, this offer would deliver cumulative base pay increases during 2023 that average 9.2% and range from 7.1% to 16.8% for our Level 1 to 7 employees, in addition to last year’s pay settlement and any contractual incremental progression due.

Worked examples of these recent and proposed changes.
