Secondment Policy: (paragraph 7.3)
For the duration of the secondment, you will be paid at the appropriate rate for the role that you are seconded into. In general terms, the expectation is that this will be the bottom spinal column point for the appropriate grade, as per our standard recruitment process.
The only exception to this is where you are seconded to a role of the same grade, in which case your substantive spinal column point should continue to be paid. Where you or your manager feel that you have relevant skills and experience for the role which would require consideration of a higher spinal column point, a salary justification form will need to be completed and sent to the Reward Team for review and consideration in line with usual recruitment processes.
If you are seconded into a role of a lower grade than your substantive post, you will receive the maximum spinal column point for that grade. Shift allowances and payments for unsociable or weekend working will only be paid as applicable to the role that you are seconded into (at the applicable rate). In other words, if you receive shift allowance in your substantive role, however the role that you are seconded into doesn't attract a shift allowance you will not receive this for the duration of the secondment.
