The trust spokesperson said: “We are pleased that we have reached this resolution as this is a positive outcome for our healthcare assistants, wider team and our patients.
“We continue to acknowledge and appreciate the vital role that our healthcare assistants have in providing care.”
Similar staff employed by the North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust, South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and South Tyneside and Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust have also recently had pay rises, Unison said.
“It’s great to see these low-paid health workers win their hard-fought campaign for fair wages and proper recognition of the years they’ve dedicated to these roles,” said Ms Williams.
