The UK government has proposed a 22.3% pay rise for junior doctors in England to resolve ongoing strike actions. The British Medical Association (BMA) will present the offer to its members, potentially ending months of protests. The raise includes an 8.1%-10.3% increase, a backdated 4.05% rise for 2023-24, and an additional 6% for 2024-25, plus a £1,000 payment. The government aims to address pay grievances and mitigate the impact of strikes on the NHS, which has seen substantial disruptions due to the walkouts.
