Contracting Out

[drplokta]

Looks like any remaining in-house cleaning contracts in the Civil Service and NHS are getting contracted out, pronto. David Cameron plans to pay managers more if they can get all of their low-paid staff off their organisation's payroll and onto someone else's.

say for example the chief exec of an NHS trust works on a contractor basis, he would no longer be an employee of the NHS trust but of a private company and thus outside the NHS. Even then he is likely to be the only employee of his own company so would not have the problem (plus escaping playing a load of tax at the time). Since the trust is paying a company for services it is no longer bound by the rules either.
