Select Committee on the Future of Healthcare

Health Service Reform: Representatives of Health Sector Workforce

9:00 am

Mr. Cian O'Dowd:

Pay is the fourth reason. These reasons are given by respondents who said they were either definitely or probably going to leave. The percentage of respondents that agreed with those statements is very similar. The top reason had 82% agreement and the fifth reason had 70% agreement. There is a large number - one in five doctors - who feel they will either definitely leave or will probably leave. The vast majority of them feel these are all relevant issues that are playing a part in their decision to consider leaving or to definitely leave.
