A recruitment company which provides temps to the health service is reportedly offering nurses £40 an hour to cross the picket line, as a two-day strike over pay begins.
Temporary workers are reportedly being told by the firm there is a fast track compliance process, which means they don't even have to supply proof of their qualifications for the high hourly pay rate.
Figures showed NHS in England gave £3billion to agencies last year to provide doctors and nurses at short notice, up 20 per cent on the year before. Nurses at over 55 trusts are walking out in the latest public sector strike in an on-going row over pay.
