Answer
Pay for most frontline workforces is set via independent Pay Review Bodies (PRBs). PRBs consider a range of evidence when forming their recommendations, including the need to recruit, retain and motivate suitably able and qualified people; the financial circumstances of government; the government’s policies for improving public services; and the inflation target.
