Worker Accommodation Costs

The request was successful.

Dear Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust,

Please can I ask that you respond to the following in line with the FOI timeframe. I look forward to hearing from you.

1. Does the Trust provide onsite accommodation for substantive staff?

2. Does the Trust provide onsite accommodation for temporary staff who require overnight accommodation to execute their duties?

3. Where Trust accommodation is not available where does the Trust advise staff to book outsourced accommodation?

4. Does the Trust hold any existing relationships with accommodation providers and if so, please name those providers that you use?

5. How much does outsourced accommodation cost either the Trust or the staff member using it?

6. On average how many workers per week use overnight accommodation and what is the average length of booking (please answer using data from financial year 2019/20)?

Yours faithfully,

Sarah Williams
