Request
1. Do you have a training compliance threshold for individual bank workers? If yes, what is this percentage threshold, for example, above 90%?
All Statutory and Mandatory training is to be completed prior to working on the bank. The only exception to this may be the face-to-face classroom-based training where a waiver may be considered by the trust depending on the role, and in line with their policy.
2. If you do have a training compliance threshold, how do you enforce/maintain this? For example, is a bank worker restricted from working, given a warning, etc, if their training compliance falls below a certain percentage?
When training is due for renewal, each worker is notified 3mth, 2mth and 1mth in advance via the training system. Where a bank workers training has expired, a restriction is put in place whilst the expired training is updated. This is with the exception of the face-to-face classroom-based training where the trust may approve a waiver if the training is booked.
3. If bank workers are not prevented from working for falling below a certain percentage of training, are they prevented from working based on being out of date for specific training, for example, resuscitation training? Answer is as per the above.
4. Is bank worker training compliance monitored by the organisation or only by the team that manages them? This is reported on by the trust and monitored by the temporary staffing team.
5. Please provide a list of statutory and mandatory training for generic bank healthcare assistants and generic bank band 5 registered nurses?

6. Is bank worker training compliance included in the organisation's strategy or organisational objectives? Statutory and Mandatory training are a requirement within the NHS employer standards.
