BMA's Salaried GPs' Handbook

This has been produced as a benefit of BMA membership for salaried GP's and GP employers. The Handbook explains the legal entitlements of all salaried GP's as employees. It therefore helps to ensure that salaried GP's are aware of their statutory and contractual rights. In addition, it helps to prevent GP employers falling foul of the law.

The handbook also contains sections on the national and local representation of salaried GP's, how to become a salaried GP and the work involved. Salaried GP's who are BMA members have been sent their own individual hard copy of the handbook. Other BMA members who would like a hard copy of the handbook, can request this via the BMA website, by telephoning  0300 123 123 3 or by emailing support@bma.org.uk.

For ease of use, the handbook is also available on the BMA website for BMA members. The Handbook will be distributed to Salaried GP BMA members from 26 February 2009 and that, if they do not receive a copy by 11 March 2009, they should contact the BMA.

Finally, as you will be aware, the BMA is able to provide expert employment advice for salaried GP's and their GP employers. While the Handbook will be of value to these GP's, it does not replace the individual advice that is available and which it is essential that GP's obtain from the BMA.
