Abstract

Shortcomings in the health and social care workforce threaten the achievement of the NHS Plan. Government's recognition of the need to build workforce capacity has led to new strategies for recruiting and retaining staff and for providing the education and training required by both professional and non-professional staff groups. The new focus on workforce issues has also opened up new opportunities to tackle inequalities regarding race, disability, gender and age. But employers face great challenges, requiring new ways of thinking and working in order to achieve change in the short and longer term.
