Review of the use and effectiveness of market pay supplements

In 2017, IES was commissioned by the Office of Manpower Economics (OME) to carry out research into the use and effectiveness of market pay supplements and Recruitment and Retention Payments (RRPs) across the pay review bodies and the wider public sector.

The research considered both the macro-, policy-level situation and the micro-, practice-level use of these supplements. It involved a literature review and policy stakeholder interviews, looking at the macro-level situation, whilst case study examples from the Armed Forces, NHS and local authorities made up with micro-level analysis.
