Liaison Workforce began working with Stockport NHS Foundation Trust to provide the Trust’s HR team and managers with a flexible digital platform in order to deliver learning and development innovation, as well as people support.

Liaison Workforce is a well-established and trusted health economy partner, helping NHS clients tackle inefficiencies, streamline processes and support financial improvements through expert advisors, established technology and best practice process.

NHS Shetland is developing an agency direct employed temporary workforce across a varied and challenging geographic area, saving the healthcare service £175,488 in the first eight months.

In its first year of using Liaison Workforce’s TempRE service for AHPs, Hywel Dda University Health Board increased agency direct employment take up by 150% and saved £148,633.

With locum spend rising, Harlow’s Princess Alexandra Hospital Trust had identified agency direct employment as a key element in bringing down both direct and indirect costs.

Within 12 months, Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust achieved an overall reduction in their medical locum spend of over 40% and a decrease in rates by more than 20%, year on year, through reduction in consultant core rates, consultant unsocial rates and staff grade core rates.

The Workforce Transformation approach is an extension of the relationships Liaison Group prides itself on having built with clients on temporary workforce solutions; partnering with NHS organisations to affect real change, deliver savings, and enable improved quality of patient care through better management of resources.

Hull University Teaching Hospitals is the largest employer in the Hull and East Yorkshire region.

These results were achieved using a multifaceted approach to the implementation project. Liaison’s Workforce team worked closely with the Trust to develop a plan which drew on their experience with other trusts implementing the bank service.
