How to use the NHS Occupation Code Manual


Occupation Codes are a set of codes used to define and identify the NHS workforce. They are set out in this
manual in matrix form by different general Staff Groups. The User Guidance pages provide information on the
structure and format of the codes and how to apply them.

Staff Group Matrices


There is a separate tab for each Staff Group code matrix which includes detailed guidance notes.
Each Staff Group matrix page is labelled with its alphabetic reference character - e.g. A for Ambulance Staff.
A list of each Staff Group and corresponding alphabetic reference is on page 2 of the User Guidance.

Lookup Guides
Lookup Guides have been included in the manual to help users to find the correct Occupation Code.
The Lookup Guide lists different job roles and titles and provides a suggested code to use.
They are intended to be used with the guidance contained in each matrix to identify the correct code.
The guides are intended to be used by those who code NHS staff, but also for users who are involved in
workforce analysis and planning.

Amendments and changes


Amendments will be issued periodically when approved by the Data Alliance Partnership Board (DAPB) and
notified to the service via the publication of an Information Standards Notice (ISN). Requests for changes and
updates to the NHS Occupation Code Manual first need to be agreed by the Workforce Information Review
Group (WIRG) and any requests should be put to WIRG via the secretariat at NHS England.

Occupation Code Manual
Version: 20.0

How to use the NHS Occupation Code Manual


Occupation codes are the traditional way of identifying numbers of staff in particular work sectors of the NHS in a
consistent way. Occupation codes cover all staff in the Hospital and Community Health Service (HCHS), both
clinical and support / administrative and ancillary staff.

Occupation codes are based on what staff do, and make no direct reference to payscale information

The manual covers NHS staff by their main functional groupings and is arranged in the following sections:

A Ambulance staff
G Administration and estates staff
H Health care assistants and other support staff
M Medical and dental staff
N Nursing, midwifery and health visiting staff
P Nursing, midwifery and health visiting learners
S Scientific, therapeutic and technical staff
U Healthcare science
Z General payments

Format of codes

Character Type Status Meaning


First Alphabetic / Numeric (1) Mandatory Defines the major staff group
Second Numeric / Alphabetic Mandatory Identifies the type of employee
Third Alphabetic / Numeric (1) Mandatory Identifies the area of work
Fourth et seq. Alpha/numeric Optional For local use only in non ESR organisations

Notes:
(1) For Medical and Dental staff, the first, second and third character are all numeric
"*" is used in this document to indicate any valid character.
Please consult the Lookup Guides at the end of this manual to check which code to use

Coding / Re-coding of staff


When staff are subject to a change in circumstances (e.g. promotion, transfer, attaining specific qualifications) the
Occupation Code should be checked for updating. When the change in circumstances is temporary, local
discretion should be used to decide whether the period of time involved justifies the change.

When re-coding existing staff to take account of new Occupation Codes, it is helpful to use a 'stop and start'
approach with a relevant effective date for the change, which is applied to all active employees affected.

The coding of directly employed NHS staff by these Occupation Codes is a Department of Health and Social Care
central requirement. All NHS employers are expected to code their own staff according to the Occupation Codes.
Invalid and inaccurate codes will be rejected in mandatory workforce collections such as the workforce Minimum
Data Set (wMDS).

Dual posts / positions


Where a member of staff has two distinct posts they should be recorded separately for each post, with an FTE
reflecting the proportion of time they spend in each post. When they have one post covering different areas (for
example, an Adult and General nurse who works on two or more different wards) they should be recorded once
with their Occupation Code reflecting their main area of work.

Multidisciplinary Team Roles


The general rule is that we code the post and not the person; however, there are some exceptions to the coding
rule, for example, when a post can be filled by individuals from multiple professional backgrounds. In which case
the Occupation Code, Staff Group and Job Role will be determined by the professional registration of the recruited
individual.

When a code is not available


Shaded boxes in the matrices, containing three dashes, indicate that the code must not be used. If it does not
appear possible to allocate a code to a post without using an un-shaded box, then NHS England should be
consulted for advice. There is also a comprehensive look up guide at the end of this document.

Version No: 20.0 | Issued: June 2023 User Guidance (2) Copyright © 2023 NHS England
NHS Occupation Code Manual v20.0

Qualified / Unqualified split


The divisions within certain matrices between qualified and unqualified staff are intended to provide a consistent
means by which the workforce is split for workforce planning and publication purposes, and are not based on the
specific registrations or qualifications that an individual may hold for their role. The matrix splits are there as a
guide and are not intended to be rigid in their application. Please see the Analysis Guide for further information.
The case is slightly different for the N matrix which is split into 'NMC Registered Nurses, Midwives and Health
Visitors' and 'Nursing Associates and support to NMC Registered Nurses, Midwives and Health Visitors' and also
for the A matrix which is split into 'Registered Ambulance Staff' and 'Support to Registered Ambulance Staff'.

Electronic Staff Record (ESR) and Occupation Code Manual updates


Published updates to the Occupation Code Manual will be implemented in line with the DAPB guidance to
suppliers and within the constraints of the ESR development process. Users will be advised of the target release
date in the Development Schedule. Organisations using ESR should ensure that their coding is in line with
guidance in the Occupation Code Manual and associated documents/tools.

Note that there is not always a direct mapping between Occupation Code values and the Staff Group/Job Role and
Area of Work values. Users are advised to seek the most appropriate match in each case. Where possible, ESR
Job Roles have been included in the alphabetical lookup guide in the Occupation Code manual. Further guidance
on how to use Job Role and Area of Work values can be found here:
https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/areas-of-interest/workforce/national-workforce-data-set-nwd-guidance-
documents

Lookup Guides
Lookup Guides have been included in the manual to help users to find the correct Occupation Code. They are
intended to be used with the guidance contained in each matrix to identify the correct code to be applied. They are
intended to be used for those who code NHS staff, but also for users who are involved in workforce analysis and
planning.

Notes for the ambulance staff matrix

1. Managers are those who have overall responsibility for budgets, manpower or assets or who are held accountable for a significant area of work and who have little or no patient contact.

2. All managers who need to be trained ambulance personnel should be included in the ambulance staff matrix (A0*).

3. All managers who do not need to be trained ambulance personnel should be included in the administration and estates staff matrix (G).

4. Only staff who have successfully completed an approved qualification in paramedic science and are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) should be coded as AB*. The word 'Ambulance' has been removed from the
row title as not all paramedics are ambulance paramedics.

5. This Occupation Code has been changed to 'Ambulance Technician / Associate Practitioner' as Ambulance Trusts are working toward the Associate Ambulance Practitioner (AAP) qualification. The change in code title aims to cover all of the
current technicians but also those staff that hold the new AAP qualification. Therefore, only staff who have completed the Institute of Healthcare and Development (IHCD) Ambulance Technician award (or equivalent) training (and no higher
clinical ambulance qualification), or the AAP, should be coded as AEA - E. These staff are at level 4 on the NHS career framework.

6. Non-Emergency Call Handlers and Non-Emergency Medical Dispatchers should be coded to G*E in the Administration and Estates staff matrix (G) with the corresponding Job Role and appropriate Area of Work value. Emergency Call
Handlers and Emergency Medical Dispatchers should be coded as A8E with the corresponding Job Role and appropriate Area of Work value.

7. Please note that a number of staff in support of Ambulance workers should be coded within the administration and estates staff matrix (G), those working in central functions (such as administrative & clerical staff or administrative managers)
should be coded as G*A according to their level of work. Those working within hotel, property & estates (maintenance of the buildings and the vehicles) should be coded as G*B. Only those staff in direct support of patient care staff (such as Non-
Emergency control staff) should be coded G*E.

8. A Consultant paramedic is a paramedic who is working towards or has completed a PhD clinical/professional doctorate and applies a highly developed theoretical and practical knowledge over a wide range of clinical, scientific, technical and/or
management functions, which include; clinical/professional leadership; expert practice; policy and service development, research and evaluation; and education and professional development (College of Paramedics definition). These staff are
registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and are at level 8 on the NHS career framework.

9. An Advanced Paramedic is an experienced paramedic who has undertaken, or is working towards a master’s degree in a subjectrelevant to their practice. They will have acquired and continue to demonstrate an expert knowledge base,
complex decision making skills, competence and judgement in their area of advanced practice (College of Paramedics definition). These staff are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and are at level 7 on the NHS
career framework.

10. 'Specialist Practitioner' - is a paramedic who has undertaken, or is working towards a post-graduate diploma (PGDip) in a subject relevant to their practice. They will have acquired and continue to demonstrate an enhanced knowledge base,
complex decision making skills, competence and judgement in their area of specialist practice (College of Paramedics definition). These Specialist Practitioners are responsible for mentoring current paramedics and taking on the supervisory and
responsibility for paramedics and technicians. This Occupation Code includes Specialist Paramedics who work in the community who also have more advanced skills to that of a qualified paramedic. These staff are registered with the Health and
Care Professions Council (HCPC) and are at level 6 on the NHS career framework.

Issued: June 2023 A - Ambulance Staff NWD Version 3.4


AMBULANCE STAFF

Notes for the ambulance staff matrix

11. Staff who are technicians in training / apprentices undertaking the Associate Ambulance Practitioner (AAP) qualification or similar training should be coded as A7*. This includes Student Paramedics (usually in Emergency Care)
and Urgent Care Practitioners. These staff are at level 3 on the NHS career framework.

12. This Occupation Code is for staff working at level 3 in the NHS career framework who are supporting qualified staff e.g. Emergency Care Assistants and Urgent Care Assistants. They will be on AfC Band 3 or unqualified Band 4
staff who are not covered by A7* - Assistant Practitioner. Using the corresponding Job Roles of 'Urgent Care Assistant' and 'Emergency Care Assistant' will enable differentiation between the staff groups. Also, Emergency Call
Handlers and Emergency Medical Dispatchers should be coded as A8E with the corresponding Job Role and Area of Work value of 'Emergency Control'.

13. This Occupation Code is for Ambulance care assistants / Patient Transport Service drivers who were previously coded as 'A2 - Ambulance Personnel'. The corresponding Job Role of 'Ambulance Care Assistant / Patient
Transport Service Driver' should be used for these staff. These staff are at level 2 on the NHS career framework.

14. Closure of Occupation Code AAA 'Emergency Care Practitioner' - This is a specialist role which requires additional qualifications, but does not have any line management responsibilities and is decreasingly used by Ambulance
Trusts. The code A6* 'Specialist Practitioner' and Job Role 'Emergency Care Practitioner' will enable identification of those staff who hold the additional qualifications.

15. Closure of Occupation Code AGA 'Trainee Ambulance Technician' - The current definition for this Occupation Code is for staff that are undergoing the Institute of Healthcare and Development (IHCD) accredited training to
become an Ambulance Technician. The IHCD no longer exists and as such this code is no longer appropriate.

16. Closure of Occupation Code A2A 'Ambulance Personnel' - This Occupation Code is a generic all-encompassing code that has been used to identify a multitude of different roles with different training requirements covering Patient
Transport Services (Band 2; 3 and 4 roles); Emergency Care Assistants (Band 3) and Emergency Care Technicians (Band 4 - not IHCD qualified). Therefore new Occupation Codes have been opened so that the various different
roles can be more easily identifiable.

17. Staff working in GP Practices e.g. Paramedics, should be coded to the appropriate level and area of work as staff working in secondary care, but should be identified by selecting 'GENGP’ in the 'Position Workplace Organisation
Code’ field on ESR.

18. Multidisciplinary Team Roles - The general rule is that we code the post and not the person; however, there are some exceptions to the coding rule, for example, when a post can be filled by individuals from multiple professional
backgrounds. In which case the Occupation Code, Staff Group and Job Role will be determined by the professional registration of the recruited individual.

Notes for the administration and estates matrix
1. This matrix is based on reporting structures and level of responsibility, not the payscale or number of staff reporting to the post. Managers / Senior Managers are those who have overall responsibility for budgets, staff
or assets or who are held accountable for a significant area of work.

2. All managers / Senior Managers who need to be a qualified Doctor, qualified Nurse, qualified Therapist, qualified Scientist or trained Ambulance personnel should be included in their relevant area of work, only those
who do not need to be a qualified Doctor, qualified Nurse, qualified Therapist, qualified Scientist or trained Ambulance personnel should be included in the administration and estates staff matrix (G). For example, a Medical
Director should be coded to their specialty, with the relevant Job Role value within the Medical and Dental Staff Group.

3. Include as Senior Managers those staff at executive level (Chief Executive, Board members and CCG Clinical Commissioning Committee Board (CCC Board) members), who do not need to be clinically qualified (be it as
a Nurse, Doctor, Scientist, Therapist or Ambulance Personnel etc.). For example, a Nursing Director who is a qualified Nurse should be coded as a Nurse, a Scientist should be recorded in the U-matrix (or the S-matrix if it is
more relevant).

Also include as Senior Managers those (non-clinical) managers who report directly to the members of the executive team, such as Assistant Directors.

4. Include as Senior Managers only those senior staff who are directly employed on a contract with regular hours, NOT on an allowance / non-exec basis. Non-executive Directors and chairman should be coded Z2E.

5. Include as Managers those service and functional managers who report directly to senior managers as detailed in the definition above. For example an Assistant Director who reports to an Executive Director on the board
should be included as a Senior Manager, but staff reporting to the Assistant Director should be included as Managers. This m ight include Service Managers for example, or a senior HR Manager. Consideration still needs to
be given to the level of responsibility of the job.

6. More junior managers and supervisors should be included in the clerical and administrative category (G2*). For example, a Team Leader or Reception Supervisor would be included here. As with note 2 only those staff
who do not need to be clinically qualified should be included here, those staff who need to be clinically qualified to undertake their role should be coded in their relevant clinical area.

7. Ambulance staff in central functions and hotel and property functions should be coded G*A or G*B. Only ambulance staff in direct support of patient care staff e.g. Non-Emergency Call Handlers, Non-Emergency
Medical Dispatchers should be coded to G*E with the corresponding Job Role and appropriate Area of Work value. Emergency Call Handlers and Emergency Medical Dispatchers should be coded in the A matrix as A8E with
the corresponding Job Role and Area of Work value of 'Emergency Control'.

8. Clinical Support would include staff directly supporting patient care staff in a clinical area. For example a Medical Records Clerk or Medica l Secretary would be included here, but a Ward Receptionist or Clerk who deal
directly with patients would be included in the H2* matrix.

9. Staff directly supporting patient care staff (but with no direct patient contact themselves), working in both the Scientific, Therapeutic & Technical (S**) and Healthcare Science (U**) areas of work should be coded as
G*C, depending upon their level of work.

10. Maintenance and Works (G3*) would include both qualified craftspersons and maintenance support such as gardeners, upholsterers and caretakers. It would not include domestic and catering staff, who are included in
the H2* matrix.

11. GP Practice staff should be coded to the appropriate level and area of work as other staff working in secondary care, but should be identified by selecting 'GP Practice' 'GENGP' in the 'Position Workplace Organisation
Code' field on ESR.

12. Please see Occupation Code Look-Up Guide at the end of this manual for an expanded list of Non-Medical Public Health Roles.

General definition
Patient care staff are those staff whose role within their job requires them to have a significant amount of patient contact, either directly or over the phone.

Notes for health care assistants and other support staff matrix
1. Code as HCA those staff who are trained, or under training in the various competencies related to their job. This training might be through NVQ or other local HCA training. Support staff without formal
NVQ or local HCA training should be coded as H2*.

2. Support staff acting as unqualified nurses should be coded N9*. This would include those nursing support staff not undertaking vocational training as a HCA as indicated above. Staff acting as helpers or
assistants to therapists, scientists and technical staff should be coded S9* or U9* depending upon the area of work within which they work or the specific staff who they support (see note 4).

3. HCAs and support workers should be included in columns A to N if they are part of specific clinical teams, or working in a specific patient care area. HCAs and support workers who carry out duties crossing
patient care areas should be coded to their prime area of work. Support workers who work entirely outside of patient care areas should be included in columns P or R for example Porters working as part of a
central Portering Service would be in column P and Cleaners working in a central Cleaning Team would be in column R.

4. Those support staff who are actually working as the equivalent of Medical Laboratory Assistants (MLAs) / Assistant Technical Officers (ATOs) / Assistants to healthcare scientists should be coded in the
relevant part of the U - Matrix (U9*), according to their specific area of work. Those supporting healthcare scientists in Life Sciences / Pathology should be coded in the relevant part of U9A-D. Those
supporting healthcare scientists in the Radiographical areas of work should be coded as U9H. Those support staff directly assisting the patient care activities of other therapists, scientists and technical staff
should be coded in the relevant area of S9* .

5. As well as including HCAs and support staff who work in support of Other scientific, therapeutic & technical staff (but shouldn't be coded in any part of S9*) H*N should now include those in support of
healthcare scientists who shouldn't be coded in any part of U9*, and have not been defined in notes 2 and 4.

6. Include non clinical support staff who work in a patient care area and have contact with patients or their relatives, such as Ward Receptionist or Ward Clerk as H2*. Support staff who do not deal directly
with patients, such as Medical Secretary or Medical Records Clerk, should be included in the G Matrix under 'Clinical Support'

7. Closure of Occupation Codes 'H1S - HCA Ambulance Service' and 'H2S - Support Worker Ambulance Service'. There is no longer the need for the Ambulance Service column in the H matrix; staff
previously coded here can be coded in either the A or G matrices.

HEALTH CARE ASSISTANTS AND OTHER SUPPORT STAFF

General definitions

Central functions include finance, personnel, information etc.

Patient care staff are those staff whose role within their job requires them to have a significant amount of patient contact.

Patient care area is an area normally available to patients or their relatives within a hospital, e.g. reception, wards etc.

The Following definitions are provided for Historical context as the names may still be used locally, particularly in the context of recruitment.

ATOs are Assistant Technical Officers and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. They would generally be scientific staff with less formal
training, working mainly in a 'support' capacity, ranging between AfC 1 and 3, with more on the job training than formal training. This is more of an
historic grade, but is still used in parts of the NHS.

MLAs are Medical Lab Assistants and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. Such roles are similar in scope and level to ATOs as described
above, typically they are responsible for supporting biomedical scientists in the delivery of patient care. They may carry out a wide range of functions in
pathology laboratories, including preparation of test media, making up and sterilising chemical solutions and separating blood serum and plasma.

Staff currently coded within systems such as ESR with the Job Role of Medical Laboratory Assistant should be recoded to the most relevant current
Job Role - please refer to the latest NWD Specification Document for more detail.

Notes for the Medical and Dental staff matrix

1. For Medical and Dental Staff "Occupation Codes" are commonly referred to as "Specialty Codes".

2. For doctors working in hospital specialties other than those listed, or mentioned in the notes below, the category "other specialties" (code 099) should be used. This code should only be used as a last resort.

3. For doctors working in Drug Dependency, the General (Internal) Medicine (001) code should be used.

4. For a general physician "with a special interest" in another speciality, the code for the other speciality should normally be used, rather than General (Internal) Medicine (001).

5. The codes for Public Health & The Community Health Service were simplified in 1995.

NURSING MIDWIFERY AND HEALTH VISITING STAFF

Notes for the main nursing and midwifery and health visiting staff matrix

1. Managers are those who have overall responsibility for budgets, manpower or assets or who are held accountable for a significant area of work and who have little or no clinical contact.

2. All managers who need to be a qualified nurse, midwife or health visitor should be included in the nursing, midwifery and health visiting staff matrix.

3. All managers who do not need to be a qualified nurse, midwife or health visitor should be included in the administration and estates staff matrix (G).

4. The term Children's Nurse applies to nurses on parts RN8, RNC or SPC of the NMC register. Please note that the title has been updated to reflect changes to the registered titles for Nurses as per the NMC Register.

5. All codes for education are only to be used for staff and not for learners.

6. Only CMHNs, as defined in the general definitions on the following pages, should be coded N4D and N5D.

7. Only CLDNs, as defined in the general definitions on the following pages should be coded N4F and N5F.

8. Only District nurses, as defined in the general definitions on the following pages, should be coded N4H and N5H.

9. Code N2J is only to be used for midwives teaching midwifery.

10. Special Care Baby Unit (SCBU) staff should no longer be coded to maternity services, but should be included in with the new Neonatal Nursing area (N*L) irrespective of lines of management accountability (See note 24).

11. Family planning should be included in community services.

12. Stoma care, control of infection, blood transfusion, occupational health, staff nursery and non- clinical management should be coded to acute, elderly and general.

13. Health care assistants should be coded in the HCAs and other support staff matrix (H).

14. GP Practice Nurses should be coded to N*H (Community Services), at the level appropriate to their grade, but should be identified by selecting 'GP Practice' 'GENGP' in the 'Assignment Organisation Type' 'Position Workplace
Organisation Code' field on ESR.

15. Nurses working on NHS 111 'phone lines should be coded at the level relevant to their grade within N*H (Community Services), and highlighted as working for NHS 111 by selecting the relevant value in the
'Assignment Organisation Type' field on ESR. Please note that this is a change to previous guidance, but which seems sensible as it is a more relevant area of work for such staff.

16. Qualified School Nurse: Only Registered nurses with a specific School Nursing qualification should be coded as NBK, other nurses working in School Nursing but who do not hold a specific qualification should be coded
at the level relevant to their grade within N*K (School Nursing).

17. NC* opened for Modern Matrons, NCH should be used to code Modern Matrons Working in the Community setting. Include only those nurses who are working specifically as Modern Matrons in their specific area of work
- it should not be used to record 'Community Matrons' - please see note 20 and 'General Definitions' overleaf.

NURSING, MIDWIFERY AND HEALTH VISITING STAFF

Notes for the main nursing and midwifery and health visiting staff matrix

18. Emergency Care Practitioners whose background is as a qualified nurse should be coded as N*A depending upon their level of experience (for most intents and purposes, this would put them in N6A).

19. Please see the Lookup Guide for coding suggestions for the new roles within mental health, some of which may be fulfilled by registered nurses.

20. NEH opened for Community Matrons. 'Community Matrons' should be returned as this code. Modern Matrons in the Community should be returned as NCH - see note 17 and 'General Definitions' overleaf.

21. N1B is primarily used for Children's Nurses working in Acute settings. However, in addition please code Community Children's Nurses (CCNs), also known as Paediatric Community Nurses / Specialist Practitioner Community
Paediatric Nurses, as N1B. Such Nurses should also be identified within ESR by using the Job Role / Area of Work combination of: Job Role: Community Practitioner / Area of Work: Paediatric Community Child Health.

22. NF* has been opened to accommodate staff who are employed as Assistant Practitioners in Nursing. They are / have undertaken training to an agreed level against a Competence Frame Work (as well as NVQ3 level training
according to Agenda for Change), it is not necessarily a nationally recognised qualification (a degree, BTEC or the like), but it will be sufficient to allow them a degree of autonomy. As such Assistant Practitioners should have
intermediate qualifications and level of autonomy, putting them between Nursing Assistants (N9*) to one extreme and Nursing Associates (NG*) / Registered Nurses (N6*) to the other. Though this particular role may not be directly
relevant in all areas of work at present, it will continue to expand, and this position within the matrix may better suit other similar staff who have previously been coded elsewhere.

23. An Assistant Practitioner in nursing delivers health and social care to patients with a level of knowledge and skill beyond that of the traditional Nursing Assistant, Auxiliary or Healthcare Assistant. Assistant Practitioners cannot be
counted as Registered Nurses. They are not legally defined as a staff group. They have formal education which is required for them to be able to do their job - this can be work based or college based or both. The qualifications may or
may not be transferable for use at other organisations. As Assistant Practitioners do not have nationally defined training and scope of practice, with linked regulation status from the NMC, they are distinct from the new Nursing
Associates, to which those things do apply.

24. Please note - those staff formerly coded as N*C working in Specialist Neonatal Roles (NICU) or in Special Care Baby Units (SCBUs) should now be coded at the relevant level in the newly created Neonatal Nursing (including
SCBUs) column - N*L.

25. Some staff who hold midwife registration may be working for some of their time in a neonatal unit in a non-midwifery role, if they are also working as a midwife they should be coded to N2C as their primary role.

26. For reference, details on the Nursing Register can be found on the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) website here: http://www.nmc-uk.org/Registration/Useful-information/Registration-qualifications/

27. N8L has been opened to identify Nursery Nurses working within Neonatal Nursing, and the movement of Nursery Nurses working in Special Care Baby Units from their former position in N8C (Maternity Services) to N8L Nursery
Nurse in Neonatal Nursing (including SCBUs).

28. Please ensure to code the following as Health Visitors:


• qualified nurses/midwives who also hold a qualification as a Registered Health Visitor under the Specialist Community Public Health Nursing part of the NMC Register working directly with children and families;
• qualified and registered Health Visitors who perform specific activities such as providing breastfeeding advice to parents;
• family nurses working within the Family Nurse Partnership Programme who are qualified and registered as Health Visitors;
• Sure Start Children’s Centre qualified and registered named Health Visitors;
• managers within a Health visiting team who hold a health visiting qualification and registration and are involved in clinical work or safeguarding.

See also 'General Definitions' overleaf.

29. Please ensure that the following employees are not coded as Health Visitors:
• any person working in a health visiting team who does not hold a qualification and registration as a Health Visitor;
• any person who holds a qualification and registration as a Health Visitor but is not employed in a role where this is a requirement;
• managers within a health visiting team who hold health visiting qualification and registration but are not involved in clinical work or safeguarding.

30. Newly qualified staff and overseas nurses waiting for their NMC PIN numbers should be coded as N9* Nursing Assistants and moved onto the correct qualified nursing Occupation Code when the number is received.

31. Closure of codes N7J and N9J - Following improvements to the guidance notes with regards to the Nursing workforce an issue with the earlier inclusion of Nurse Education staff at two inappropriate levels has been brought to light.
Following further investigation these codes should never have been available within the Education Staff area of work, and have now been removed. There are very limited numbers of staff who have been coded to N7J and N9J and
staff should be recoded to a suitable occupation code within the matrix

32. Updated Occupation Code name to reflect changes to the registered titles for Nurses as per the NMC Register. This work will be built upon with more changes in a future version of the Occupation Code Manual to bring all of the
values up to date

Issued: June 2023 N - Nursing & Midwifery p3 NWD Version 3.4


NURSING, MIDWIFERY AND HEALTH VISITING STAFF

Notes for the main nursing and midwifery and health visiting staff matrix

33. Nursery Nurse - undertakes tasks delegated by a registered practitioner supporting the care of young children and babies. Nursery nurses have qualifications in childcare or early years including:
- CACHE Level 3 Diploma in Child Care and Education
- BTEC National Diploma in Children's Care, Learning and Development
- NVQ Level 3 in Children's Care, Learning and Development
- NNEB
- Children's Care Play, Learning and Development (CCPLD), level 3 wef September 2019

As Mental Health and Learning Disabilities are increasingly delivered in the Community, it is important to have Nursery Nurses in these settings to support the care of young children and babies.

34. Nursing Assistant Practitioner - assistant practitioner is expected to independently manage their own work and case load, undertake tasks delegated by a registered practitioner with appropriate supervision, within agreed
protocols. Assistant Practitioners will have health related qualifications at Level 4 or above. Nursing Assistant Practitioner in Education will support the Nursing education for Trainee Nursing Associates and Healthcare Assistants
within agreed protocols. Assistant Practitioners will have health related qualifications at Level 4 or above.

35. Nursing Associate - Nursing Associate is a new role being introduced into the health and care workforce in England from January 2019. It is a generic role (not defined by a field of nursing) but within the discipline of nursing.
Nursing Associates are intended to bridge a gap between health and care assistants, and registered nurses.

They are not nurses; nursing is a graduate entry profession and those joining the nursing part of the NMC register require a degree. Nurses also develop additional skills and knowledge within a specific field of nursing.

Nursing Associates are a new profession, accountable for their practice. These proficiencies set out what pre-registration training will equip Nursing Associates to know, and do. Once they are practising, Nursing Associates can
undertake further education and training and demonstrate additional knowledge and skills, enhancing their competence as other registered professionals routinely do. The roles played by Nursing Associates will vary from setting to
setting, depending on local clinical frameworks, and it may also be shaped by national guidance.

Nursing Associates are regulated by the NMC, having the Sub-Part entry of Nursing Associate (NAR) - 'NAR Registered Nursing Associate' on the NMC Register. Only those staff who hold the relevant qualification and registration
to the correct sub-part of the NMC register should be coded as Nursing Associates. Please note, they have a registration of Registered Nursing Associate, they are not Registered Nurses. Only those staff who hold the relevant
qualification and registration to the correct sub-part of the NMC register should be coded as Nursing Associates.

The Care Setting for Nursing Associates should be determined by the primary area in which they are working.

36. These occupation Codes should be used in association with their linked Job Roles:
For Nursing Associates use the Staff Group | Job Role value of: Additional Clinical Services | Nursing Associate
For Trainee Nursing Associates use the Staff Group | Job Role value of: Additional Clinical Services | Trainee Nursing Associate

37. Trainee Nursing Associate - Trainee Nursing Associates are those staff who are undertaking the two year training programme to qualify as a Nursing Associate, this includes those Nursing Associates undertaking their training
through the apprentice route. Only those staff undertaking an approved and accredited Nursing Associate training course should be coded using these codes. The Care Setting for Trainee Nursing Associates should be determined by
their main placement and not updated in response to short-term rotations in other settings.

38. Trainee Nursing Associates and Nursing Associates are only applicable in England - this new role has not been introduced in Wales.

39. Nursing Associates are a new role, with nationally defined training and scope of practice linked to regulated status with the NMC. This new role is distinct from existing Assistant Practitioners within the area of nursing. In addition,
Assistant Practitioners are not regulated roles, and should not be substituted or mistaken for Nursing Associates or vice versa.

40. This Occupation Code includes Registered Nurses working in NHS 111 contact centres who are providing NHS 111 clinical services over the telephone. The Area of Work 'NHS 111' should be used for these staff.

41. Closure of Occupation Code N1A - This Occupation Code has been closed as a Children's Nurse would not be working in the 'Adult and General' care setting. The appropriate Occupation Code should be used along with the Area
of Work value which will identify the area in which a Children’s Nurse is working, e.g. Accident and Emergency.

42. N9C includes Maternity Support Workers who should be coded using the Maternity Support Worker Job Role within the Additional Clinical Services Staff Group. Maternit y Support Workers are individuals who meet the HEE
MSW competency education and career development framework at education and competency level 3 or 4.

43. Multidisciplinary Team Roles - The general rule is that we code the post and not the person; however, there are some exceptions to the coding rule, for example, when a post can be filled by individuals from multiple professional
backgrounds. In which case the Occupation Code, Staff Group and Job Role will be determined by the professional registration of the recruited individual.

2. Learners' third character A is only to be used for learners undertaking a course leading to registration on the midwives part of the NMC Register (RM).

3. Learners' third character B is only to be used for learners undertaking a course leading to registration on the relevant part of the specialist community public health nursing part of NMC Register (RHV / HV).

4. Learners' third character C is only to be used for learners undertaking a course leading to a qualification as a 1 st level district nurse.

5. Learners' third character D is only to be used for learners undertaking Diploma Nurse Training or a branch leading to reg istration on the nurses part of the NMC register sub part 1 (RN1, RNA, RN3, RNMH, RN5, RMLD,
RN8, RNC).

6. Learners' third character E is only to be used for learners undertaking courses leading to registration on all other aspe cts of the NMC Register.

7. Following the changes resulting from the NHS Digital consultation on its workforce publications the post-registration learners have been moved into the qualified element of the publication groupings and are no longer
included in the support staff grouping along with the pre-registration learners. This change has been reflected in the Analysis Guide included at the end of this manual. To better coordinate the split of registered and support
codes as in the other matrices the P Code matrix has been re-ordered, so that the registered codes are now at the top of the matrix. This is a display change only and has no material change on the codes or their meaning.
More detail on the outcome of the consultation is available here: http://digital.nhs.uk/hchs

Any other learners (e.g. those undertaking post registration continuing registration courses) should not be coded as learners but to their prime area of work in the main nursing matrix.

General Definitions

Pre-registration learners: Student nurses or midwives who hold no registerable nursing qualification.

Post 1st level registration learners: Student nurses, midwives or health visitors who already hold a first level nursing registration

Post 2nd level registration learners: Student nurses or midwives who already hold a second level nursing registration but do not hold a first level registration.

NWD Version 3.4
SCIENTIFIC, THERAPEUTIC AND TECHNICAL STAFF

Notes for the scientific, therapeutic and technical staff matrix


1. Managers are those who have overall responsibility for budgets, manpower or assets or who are held accountable for a significant area of work and who have little or no clinical contact.

2. All managers who need to be a qualified therapist should be included in the scientific, therapeutic and technical staff matrix.

3. All managers who do not need to be a qualified therapist should be included in the administration and estates staff matrix (G).

4. Code S7F includes all radiography tutors.

5. Health Care Assistants should be coded in the HCAs and other support staff matrix (H).

6. Code assistant psychologists as S5L - Staff previously coded as S3L should now be coded as S5L.

7. Code pre-registration trainee pharmacists as S3P Pharmacists - [MPharm Graduates who are working towards GPhC registration].

8. S4C has now been opened for Occupational Therapy Technicians - please note this should only include those staff who provide technician support for existing equipment. Those who develop new
equipment or modify existing equipment should be coded as U4J - Practitioner in Clinical Engineering with the Area of Work of Rehabilitation Engineering.

9. S6J has now been opened for Instructor / Teachers working within Speech and Language Therapy.

10. S6E has now been opened for physiotherapy instructors/teachers.

11. GP Practice staff should be coded to the appropriate level and area of work as other staff working in secondary care, but should be identified by selecting 'GP Practice' 'GENGP' in the 'Workplace
Organisation Type' 'Position Workplace Organisation Code' field on ESR.

12. Allied Health Professional (AHP) Consultants (Consultant Therapists / Scientists) are those staff who are specifically appointed as such. They are expert within their area of advanced clinical practice and
leadership; and they research and provide a focus for education and professional development within a given clinical area. Public Health Dental Consultants who are GDC registered with a Medical and Dental
Pay Grade code should be coded within the M Matrix with the Occupation Code 980.

13. Former Local Authority social care staff who may be employed by NHS Organisations, Care Trusts, Community Trusts etc. These are staff who need to be (or work directly with) qualified social services
staff to do their jobs within the organisation. For example social or youth workers, day-care advisers, child protection officers, family placement officers, rehabilitation staff, or disability service workers. (Note
that this list is not exhaustive). Includes non registered, patient facing Public Health support staff.

14. S5* has now been opened to accommodate staff who are employed as Assistant Practitioners. They are / have undertaken training to an agreed level against a Competence Frame Work (as well as NVQ3
level training according to Agenda for Change), it is not necessarily a nationally recognised qualification (a degree, BTEC or the like), but it will be sufficient to allow them a degree of autonomy. As such
Assistant Practitioners should have intermediate qualifications and level of autonomy, putting them between Assistants (S9*) to one extreme and Therapists (S1*) to the other. Some of their remit will involve
them in delivering protocol-based clinical care that had previously been in the remit of registered professionals, under the direction and supervision of a state registered practitioner. Though this particular role
may not be directly relevant in all areas of work at present, it will be continuing to expand, and this position within the matrix may better suit other similar staff who have previously been coded elsewhere.
Includes non GDC registered Public Health Assistant Practitioners working in dental roles.

15. An Assistant Practitioner delivers health and social care to patients with a level of knowledge and skill beyond that of the traditional healthcare assistant or support worker. Assistant Practitioners cannot be
counted legally as qualified AHPs. They are not legally defined as a staff group. They have formal education which is required for them to be able to do their job - this can be work based or college based or
both. The qualifications may or may not be transferable for use at other organisations. Includes non GDC registered Public Health Assistant Practitioners working in dental roles.

16. S4F has now been closed, staff formerly coded here should now be coded as U4H.

17. S*N, S*Q and S*S have been removed from the matrix as they have been closed for a number of years. Any staff formerly coded there are now coded within the relevant part of the 'U' Matrix.

18. Because of the introduction of the U Matrix, some staff formerly coded as S*X (Other S,T & T), and elsewhere within the 'S' matrix may now be more accurately coded to the relevant level and area of work
within the U matrix.

19. Please note that the names down the left hand side of the matrix, associated with the codes, do not necessarily apply to all code combinations. It is important that the codes are used so that the level of
work (second character) denotes the level of qualification or experience required to fulfil the role of the post.

20. Advanced Practitioners should continue to be coded in the relevant area of work as S1*, as this is the best fit available at present. Within ESR they should have the Job Role 'Advanced Practitioner' within
either the Allied Health Professional or Additional Professional Scientific & Technical Staff Group, depending upon which group they work in, with more detail provided via the Area of Work which they are
associated with. However, S1L and S1M should only be used for Applied Psychologists and High Intensity Therapists working in IAPT NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression (formerly known as
IAPT) services.

Issued: June 2023 S - S,T & T p3 NWD Version 3.4


SCIENTIFIC, THERAPEUTIC AND TECHNICAL STAFF

Notes for the scientific, therapeutic and technical staff matrix - Continued
21. Emergency Care Practitioners - If they neither have a background in Nursing or the Ambulance workforce and don't hold a relevant paramedic qualification, then they should be coded S*X, where the
level is dependant upon their level of qualification ( S1X may be a suitable level of qualification). It is worth bearing in mind that staff coded S** are not limited to AHPs, it is in fact a very diverse group.

22. Code S1M has been opened for High Intensity Therapists in Psychological Therapy in response to the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and
depression (formerly known as IAPT) Programme. It is to be used for those staff working at this level and in that area only and should be combined with the correct Job Role and Area of Work values.
Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners working with IAPT NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression (formerly known as IAPT ) services should be coded as S5M, and not as S1M as previously
advised. The correct Area of Work and Job Role values should also be used. Both Trainee IAPT NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression (formerly known as IAPT) High Intensity Therapists and
Trainee Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners should be coded as S8M. The correct Area of Work and Job Role values should also be used.

As the first tranche of the re-development of the occupation code definitions and guidance (along with the updated note 7 on the previous page) the following are a series of definitions
intended to help with the coding of Pharmacy staff:

23. SAP – Consultant Pharmacists – [Registered Pharmacists working in Consultant Pharmacist Posts – Note: these posts are normally approved by the Strategic Health Authorities].

24. S0P – Chief Pharmacists – [Registered Pharmacists who are Departmental/Service Heads for Acute, Mental Health or Primary Care Trusts and includes “Heads of Medicine Management” who are
normally employed within PCTs].
25. S2P – Pharmacists (trained) – [Registered Pharmacists – Note: Consultant and Chief Pharmacists are separately coded].

26. S4P – Pharmacy Technicians (trained)- [Qualified to NVQ3; these post holders will be required to be registered with GPhC fro m mid 2011].

27. S5P – Assistant Practitioner Pharmacy Technicians - now closed - this is not a valid job role. Any existing staff coded as S5P should in fact be coded S4P (Pharmacy Technician) in accordance with the
existing guidance notes.

28. S8P – Pharmacy Technicians (Trainee) – [Trainee Pharmacy Technicians who are working towards qualification at NVQ3, and GPhC registration].

29. S9P – Pharmacy Assistants – [Assistants should be qualified, or working towards it, at NVQ2 level].

Notes 30 and 31 are additional notes for the coding of the Pharmacy workforce:

30. Both S4P - Pharmacy Technicians (trained) and S2P – Pharmacists (trained) can have managerial responsibility, however that would not mean they would sit within the S0P codes, but remain within
the codes relevant to their occupation.

31. Pharmacy Apprentices should be coded to either S8P or S9P dependant on their level, though the majority would fall within S8P.

32. Check for Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) registration when using this occupation code as qualified staff should be registered with the HCPC. More information on protected titles and the
HCPC are available from here: https://www.hcpc-uk.org/about-us/who-we-regulate/the-professions/ and here: https://www.hcpc-uk.org/check-the-register/

33. The following groups of Dental Care Professionals (DCP) need to be registered with the General Dental Council (GDC) : Clinical Dental Technician, Dental Hygienist, Dental Nurse, Dental Technician,
Dental Therapist, Orthodontic Therapist, Dental Tutor. See https://olr.gdc-uk.org/SearchRegister for further details. Includes Public Health Dental Care Professionals registered with the GDC.
34. Newly qualified staff waiting for their HCPC Registration numbers should be coded as S9* Helper/Assistants and moved onto the correct qualified occupation code when registration is received

35. Code Dental Nurse as S4R - due to the up-skilling of this role, the previous advice to use S9R is no longer relevant. Includes Public Health Dental Nurses.

36. S8H is opened for coding of 'Art, Music & Drama Student'.

37. S9D allows the accurate coding of staff such as Retinal Screening Assistants (AfC Band 2) in Diabetic Eye Screening Services, amongst other things.
38. Optometrists and Dispensing Opticians must be registered with the General Optical Council - https://www.optical.org/

39. S*L 'Clinical Psychology' column has been renamed 'Applied Psychology' as this wider description better reflects the intended group of staff to be captured, this includes Clinical Psychology and other
branches of Applied Psychology.

40. S*M 'Psychotherapy' column has been renamed 'Psychological Therapy' as this wider description better reflects the intended group of staff to be captured, this includes Psychotherapists and othe r
Psychological Therapists.

41. S1L has been opened for Applied Psychologists working within Improving Access to Psychological Therapy NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression (formerly known as IAPT) services only.
The correct Area of Work and Job Role values should also be used and it should not be used for Applied Psychologists who do not form part of an IAPT an NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and
depression (formerly known as IAPT) team.

42. Code S4L has been closed, Assistant Psychologists should be coded as S5L. The correct Area of Work and Job Role values should also be used.

43. Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners working with IAPT NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression (formerly known as IAPT) services should be coded as S5M, and not as S1M as previously
advised. The correct Area of Work and Job Role values should also be used.

44. Student / Trainee Applied Psychologists should be coded S8L. The correct Area of Work and Job Role values should also be used.

45. Both Trainee IAPT NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression (formerly known as IAPT ) High Intensity Therapists and Trainee Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners should be coded as S8M.
The correct Area of Work and Job Role values should also be used.

46. The S2 'Scientist' row should be used for the relevant Applied Psychology and Psychological Therapy staff who would more accurately be described as Therapists, but are not part of an IAPT an NHS
Talking Therapies for anxiety and depression (formerly known as IAPT) service and therefore cannot be coded using either of the values reserved specifically for IAPT NHS Talking Therapies for anxiety
and depression (formerly known as IAPT) staff (S1L and S1M respectively). The correct Area of Work and Job Role values should also be used.

47. S*I 'Prosthetics and Orthotics' - new column has been added to capture information on staff working in Prosthetics and Orthotics.

48. Psychological Therapist Definition - required standards:

SCIENTIFIC, THERAPEUTIC AND TECHNICAL STAFF

49. This Occupation Code is to be renamed to comply with the Statutory Instrument related to the Protected Title of Dramatherapist. The HCPC and NHS Careers websites both use Dramatherapy
and Dramatherapist and The British Association of Dramatherapists (BADth) is the professional organisation for Dramatherapists in the United Kingdom. No burden on users of ESR, straight
renaming of existing value and no action required to update individual records.

50. Operating Department Practitioners are now classed as Allied Health Professionals so their Occupation Codes are now grouped with the other AHP staff. Please review Job Role
coding for existing and new ODP staff as this change has resulted in additional Job Roles being created for ODPs at different levels common to all AHP staff.

51. Occupation Code S1T has been opened for Specialist Practitioner / Advanced Roles within Operating Theatres such as Advanced ODPs and Surgical Care Practitioners registered
with the HCPC. The correct Job Role values should also be used.

52. New Occupation Codes opened for Osteopaths and Osteopathy Support Staff which have been recognised as AHPs. Please use the appropriate Job Role values according to
their level of practice.

53. Registration is required with the General Osteopathic Council which regulates Osteopaths in the UK.

54. The Occupation code S9L has been opened for Peer Support Workers, Senior Peer Support Workers and other Clinical Support staff working in the area of Applied Psychology.
The correct Job Role and Area of Work values should be used. Assistant Psychologists should be coded as S5L.

55. The AHP Occupation Codes S1* are to be used to record AHP Advanced Practitioners along with the corresponding Job Role. All AHPs now have specific Advanced Practitioner Job Roles
within each profession. Ensure that all staff recorded as Advanced Practitioners fulfil the following criteria:

Advanced Practitioner role - requiring an experienced registered healthcare practitioner to have acquired an expert knowledge base, complex decision-making skills and clinical capabilities.
Their practise is characterised by a high degree of autonomy and is underpinned by a master’s level award or equivalent that encompass clinical practice, leadership and management, education
and research, with demonstration of core capabilities and area specific clinical competence.

The summary aligns to the Multi-professional framework for advanced clinical practice in England
(https://www.hee.nhs.uk/sites/default/files/documents/Multi-professional%20framework%20for%20advanced%20clinical%20practice%20in%20England.pdf)

56. Public Health Consultants / Specialists who are not registered with the GMC but are registered as a Specialist on the UKPHR (UK Public Health Register) register, should be coded with the
Occupation Code SAX. Ensure the UKPHR registration is added to their record in ESR - select the ‘Other’ category and then input ‘UKPHR’ only, to avoid spelling inaccuracies. Also ensure the
appropriate Job Role and Area of Work values are used.

57. Public Health Practitioners who do not require registration with a statutory body, e.g., NMC, as an essential criterion for their role, but are registered on the UKPHR (UK Public Health Register)
register, should be coded with the Occupation Code S1X. Ensure the UKPHR registration is added to their record in ESR - select the ‘Other’ category and then input ‘UKPHR’ only, to avoid spelling
inaccuracies. Also ensure the appropriate Job Role and Area of Work values are used.

58. Public Health Practitioners who do not require registration with a statutory body, e.g., NMC, as an essential criterion for their role, and are not registered on the UKPHR (UK Public Health
Register) register, should be coded with the Occupation Code S5X. Ensure the appropriate Job Role and Area of Work values are used.

59. Multidisciplinary Team Roles - The general rule is that we code the post and not the person; however, there are some exceptions to the coding rule, for example, when a post can be filled by
individuals from multiple professional backgrounds. In which case the Occupation Code, Staff Group and Job Role will be determined by the professional registration of the recruited individual.

SCIENTIFIC, THERAPEUTIC AND TECHNICAL STAFF

General Definition Notes for the scientific, therapeutic and technical staff matrix

The Following definitions are provided for Historical context as the names may still be used locally, particularly in the context of recruitment.

ATOs are Assistant Technical Officers and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. They would generally be scientific staff with less formal training, working mainly in a 'support' capacity,
ranging between AfC 1 and 3, with more on the job training than formal training. This is more of a historic grade, but is still used in parts of the NHS.

MLAs are Medical Lab Assistants and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. Such roles are similar in scope and level to ATOs as described above, typically they are responsible for
supporting biomedical scientists in the delivery of patient care. They may carry out a wide range of functions in pathology laboratories, including preparation of test media, making up and sterilising
chemical solutions and separating blood serum and plasma.

Staff currently coded within systems such as ESR with the Job Role of Medical Laboratory Assistant should be recoded to the most relevant current Job Role - please refer to the NWD2.8
Specification Document for more detail.

MTOs are Medical Technical Officers and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. Such roles would range between AfC Band 4 for newly qualified staff, to band 7 for senior MTOs. Though
this term is still used in parts of the NHS it is predominantly a relic of the pre-Agenda for Change pay structure of the NHS, where there were specific MTO pay grades (from MTO 1 - broadly
equivalent to AfC 4 - to MTO 5 - broadly equivalent to AfC 7). These are scientific staff who have undertaken training and are therefore able to hold varying degrees of responsibility in their work,
especially for the operation and maintenance of equipment.

MLSOs are Medical Laboratory Scientific Officers and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. Such roles are similar in scope and level to MTOs as described above, though at a slightly
higher level of qualification, with trained MLSOs tending to start on AfC Band 5. They analyse medical specimens such as blood and tissue to assist doctors with the diagnosis and treatment of
disease. All their work is based on a detailed knowledge of biological, biochemical and chemical processes.

HEALTHCARE SCIENTISTS PREFACE

Important Notice:

New Workforce Classifications for Healthcare Science and Public Health Science Staff - U Matrix

To a large extent the transition of codes for Healthcare Science positions from the old 'T' matrix to the new 'U' matrix is near complete.
New Occupation Code and Area of Work values have been added to include emerging scientific specialisms in Healthcare Science and also those of the scientific workforce in Public Health and
Bioinformatics.

Please note: the Public Health Sciences Occupation Codes (U*L and U*M) are only for use by Public Health England or organisations specifically employing Public Health Scientists.

NHS England worked with a wide range of stakeholders, to create a new and more accurate way of recording Healthcare Science workforce data on ESR and other HR systems. Using the Healthcare Science
career framework as a foundation, a new set of Area of Work values, Job Role values and Occupation Codes was approved by the Data Alliance Partnership Board (DAPB) for use in the National Workforce Data
Set (NWD). This means that all Healthcare Science and PH scientific positions need to be examined to ensure that they are coded accurately to reflect both the current workforce and new staff from training
programmes.

Despite the former 'T' Healthcare Science codes having been closed for a number of years, a number of organisations still have positions coded using these out of date codes. Please can you
check your workforce information and ensure that any remaining posts associated with the closed 'T' Healthcare Scientist codes are updated in consultation with the Healthcare Science leads
within your organisation. For organisations using ESR these invalid codes now impact your WoVEn Data Quality score.

Following an extensive consultation with the Modernising Scientific Careers (MSC) Team at the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and Health Education England, the MSC early adopters network,
NHS Employers, Healthcare Science Professional Leads and the Workforce Information Review Group the previous Occupation Codes for Healthcare Science staff (T Matrix) were closed and a new U Matrix
was opened to replace them.

Additional changes have been made to other aspects of the National Workforce Data Set (NWD) to better accommodate this aspect of the NHS workforce, including updating the available Job Role and Area of
Work values. The latest version of the NWD can be found here: http://digital.nhs.uk/datasets/nwd

The new values need to be applied to your current Healthcare Science and Public Health workforce. This involves auditing your current workforce data to ensure the correct records are included in the changes,
reviewing the new values and assessing how these apply to your existing records, and then finalising the changes that you want to make to your records. It is vital that any changes are made in collaboration
with Healthcare Science and Public Health leads within your organisation.

Detailed guidance notes have been provided with the U Matrix, indicating where possible any information on how to recode existing records.

If applied correctly, the new Healthcare Science and Public Health values will allow workforce planners, HR teams and directors to better understand and manage their Healthcare Science and Public Health
teams, and improve data quality. It is vital for the success of this process that the local ESR system management team collaborates with the local Healthcare Science Lead, Public Health Lead and department
managers to verify the chosen values to ensure that they are applied correctly.

NHS England has developed a set of guidance tools and materials to help and assist organisations with this change process. They are available here:
https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/areas-of-interest/workforce/national-workforce-data-set-nwd-guidance-documents

Users of the Electronic Staff Record (ESR) can raise a Service Request (SR) with the Interface Team to make mass changes to pre-existing Positions on the system. Further information will be made available
by the ESR Team via User Notices .

If you have any questions or require further information, please contact NHS Digital, with ‘Healthcare Science Workforce’ in the subject line: [email protected]

It is strongly recommended that where an individual holds a protected title registered by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) : http://www.hcpc-
uk.org/aboutregistration/protectedtitles/ this information should be held in the Position (Job) Title Field and Professional Registration fields of the ESR or other HR system to ensure that this
information is available.

Notes for the new Healthcare Science U matrix

This guidance should be used in combination with the 'Guide to Healthcare Science Workforce Classifications within ESR' and o ther guidance available with relation to the National Workforce Dataset and
the ESR Job Role and Area of Work Guidance documents which can be found here: https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/areas-of-interest/workforce/national-workforce-data-set-nwd-guidance-
documents

1. Managers (U0*) are those who are operationally responsible for a healthcare science department. They may have overall resp onsibility for budgets, manpower or assets or who are held accountable for a significant
area of work. They may undertake little or no direct healthcare science function (lab or patient investigations).

2. All managers who need to be a qualified Healthcare Scientist to undertake the role and fulfil the requirement outlined in point 1 should be included in the Healthcare Science staff matrix (U) as Managers (U0*) within
their relevant area of work.

3. All managers who do not need to be a qualified Healthcare Scientist should be included in the administration and estates s taff matrix (G).

4. Consultant Healthcare Scientists (UA*) are Clinical Scientists who are typically employed on Agenda for Change pay bands 8 c or above and are appointed to the position by a local Consultant appointment panel or
other peer assessed appointment system. Under the previous system, they were defined as Clinical Scientist Grade C with or without enhancement points.

5. In order to be considered a Specialist Practitioner (U3*) the role must require that the post holder has undertaken some additional specialist learning over and above their base-level qualification, it is therefore the
Accredited Scientific Practice criteria that shifts a Practitioner to a Specialist Practitioner.

6. Clinical Physiologists and Technologists (sometimes known as Physiological Measurement Technicians (PMTs)) working within Physiological Sciences should be coded as Healthcare Science Practitioner within
Physiological Sciences (U4*E-G) or Specialist Healthcare Science Practitioner (U3*E-G) within Physiological Sciences.

7. Healthcare Science Associate (U5*) should accommodate staff who are employed as Associates (also known as Assistant Practi tioners). They are / have undertaken training to an agreed level against a Competence
Framework (as well as Higher Apprenticeship or NVQ3 level training according to Agenda for Change), it is not necessarily a n ationally recognised qualification (a degree, BTEC or equivalent), but it will be sufficient to
allow them a degree of autonomy. As such an Associate should have intermediate qualifications and level of autonomy, putting them between Assistants (U9*) to one extreme and Healthcare Science Practitioners (U4*)
to the other. Though this particular role may not be directly relevant in all areas of work at present, it will continue to e xpand as this sort of role develops to cover more aspects of the workforce.

8. A Healthcare Science Associate will undertake more advanced and complex investigative tasks and treatment protocol based p rocedures than assistants, with appropriate supervision, either by a Healthcare Science
Practitioner, or a Healthcare Scientist. Associates cannot be counted as qualified staff. They are not legally defined as a s taff group. They have formal education that is required for them to be able to do their job, and
integrates academic and work based learning. The qualifications may or may not be transferable for use at other organisations .

9. Blood Sciences includes Clinical Biochemistry, Haematology, Blood Transfusion, Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics, Immu nology, Phlebotomy, toxicology and Point of Care Testing.

10. Infection Sciences includes Medical Microbiology and Medical Virology.

11. Cellular Sciences includes Anatomical Pathology, Cervical Cytology, Cytopathology, Electron Microscopy, Histopathology, T issue Banking and Reproductive Science.

12. Cardiac, Vascular, Respiratory and Sleep Science (CVRS) includes Autonomic Science, Cardiac Physiology, Clinical Perfusio n, Critical Care, Respiratory Physiology, Sleep Physiology and Vascular Science.

13. Neurosensory Sciences includes Audiological Science, Neurophysiology and Ophthalmic and Vision Science.

14. Gastrointestinal and Urodynamic Sciences includes Gastrointestinal Physiology and Urodynamic Science.

15. Medical Physics includes Non-Ionising Radiation, Medical Illustration, Nuclear Medicine, Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, Radiation Safety ,Radiotherapy Physics and other existing Imaging Area of Work
values (Imaging, Clinical Radiology, Ultrasound, CT, MRI, Mammography, Angiography, Breast Screening, Radiopharmacy, Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology).

16. Clinical Engineering includes Medical Equipment Management, Medical Engineering, Rehabilitation Engineering, Radiation En gineering, Clinical Measurement & Development, Renal Technology, Maxillofacial
Prosthetics.

Notes for the new Healthcare Science U matrix - Continued

17. Code staff working in Pathology as Life Sciences (U*A-D) with the appropriate value for their area of work and pathway level. The Pathology Area of Work value has now been made available for selection alongside
the Life Sciences occupation codes in response to feedback regarding Senior and Support roles which cover multiple areas of Pathology and cannot be otherwise categorised. It should not be used as an 'other', and
where possible attempts should be made to use one of the more detailed AoW values available if they better reflect the Specialism of the role being coded.

18. Code staff working in External Quality Assurance as Life Sciences (U*A-D) with the appropriate value for their specific area of work, e.g. Cervical Cytology, Blood Sciences

19. Information regarding protected titles, which for Healthcare Scientist includes:

Clinical Scientist
Biomedical Scientist
Hearing Aid Dispenser

Please see the HCPC website for further information regarding the protected titles themselves: http://www.hcpc-uk.org/aboutregistration/protectedtitles/

Please note that when re-coding existing posts, occupation codes U2*, U1*, and UA* must only be used for those posts requiring the protected title of 'Clinical Scientist' and no other.

Information regarding protected titles should be captured within the Professional Registration elements of HR Systems such as the ESR, and may also be captured within the position (job) title field for reference. More
detail is provided within section 4 of the 'Guide to Healthcare Science Workforce Classifications within ESR' guidance document available on the NHS Digital website: https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/areas-of-
interest/workforce/national-workforce-data-set-nwd-guidance-documents

Transition from 'T' occupation codes to the 'U' occupation codes

Please note that the new U codes do not directly map to the previous T codes, so it is very important to check with the local Healthcare Science lead and apply the correct code for each position.

20. Code Technician (previously coded as T4*) as Healthcare Science Practitioner (U4*). However, some roles, such as Anatomical Pathology Technician and Mortuary Technician, should be coded to Healthcare Science
Associate (U5*), depending on level of qualification.

21. Code Biomedical Scientist (previously coded as T3*) as Healthcare Science Practitioner (U4*) - see note 19 regarding the capture of information on protected titles.

22. Code Advanced Biomedical Scientist (previously coded as T2*) as Specialist Healthcare Science Practitioner (U3*) - see note 19 regarding the capture of information on protected titles.

23. Code Cytoscreener (previously coded as T5*) as Cytoscreener, in Cellular Sciences (U5C)

24. Code Perfusionist (previously coded as T6*) as Specialist Healthcare Science Practitioner in Cardiac, Vascular, Respiratory and Sleep Science (CVRS) (U3E)

25. Specialist Healthcare Scientist (U1*) should be used for Clinical Scientists who are typically Agenda for Change pay band 8b and below. The post holder has undertaken some additional specialist learning over and
above their base-level qualification, it is therefore the Accredited Expert Scientific Practice criteria that shifts a Scientist to a Specialist Scientist. See note 19 regarding the capture of information on protected titles.

26. Staff previously coded to Renal Dialysis (T*J) should now be coded to Clinical Engineering (U*J ) with an Area of Work value of Renal Technology.

27. Staff previously coded to 'Other' values in T matrix - such as 'Other Life Sciences' (T*F), 'Other Physiological Sciences' (T*M), 'Other Physical Sciences' (T*T) and 'Other Healthcare Science Professions' (T*U) the most
appropriate detailed value - most relevant to their pathway level - should be used. Where this information is not clear, please consult the Healthcare Science lead within your organisation for assistance.

28. The Advanced Practitioner Job Role should not be used against Healthcare Scientist (U3*). Only the Healthcare Scientist Roles should be used with the qualified Healthcare Scientist occupation codes and only the
specific supporting roles used with the unqualified Healthcare occupation codes.

29. The ‘Pathology’ Area of Work value has now been made available for selection alongside the Life Sciences occupation codes in response to feedback regarding Senior and Support roles which cover multiple areas of
Pathology and cannot be otherwise categorised. It should not be used as an 'other', and where possible attempts should be made to use one of the more detailed AoW values available if they better reflect the Specialism
of the role being coded.

30. Clinical Bioinformatics (U*K) includes the Areas of Work Clinical Engineering, Genomics, Health Informatics Science and Medical Physics. The codes U*K must only be used for posts requiring the post holder to be
working in a clinical science context, qualifying through the Scientist Training Programme (STP) or equivalent. U*K should not be used for posts that encompass a purely IT/data orientated function.

31.The Area of Work ‘Genetic Counselling’ coded under U*D should only be used for posts requiring the post holder to have qualified in the new Scientist Training Programme (STP) in that subject. U*D linked with
Continued overleaf
‘Genetic Counselling’ as the AoW should not be used in any other circumstance (the first graduates from this STP will be in 2019).

HEALTHCARE SCIENTISTS

Notes for the new Healthcare Science U matrix - Continued

32. Social Sciences (U*L) includes Nutritional Sciences, Behavioural Sciences, and Field Epidemiology. The codes U*L must only be used in the coding of Public Health England scientific posts, they must not be used for
NHS Healthcare Science posts. The coding of PHE scientific posts must follow the general criteria for the choice of Job Role as for Healthcare Science positions.

33. Environmental Sciences (U*M) includes Radiation Safety, Radiation Sciences, and Toxicology. The codes U*M must only be used for the coding of Public Health England scientific posts, they must not be used for NHS
Healthcare Science posts. The coding of PHE scientific posts must follow the general criteria for the choice of Job Role as for Healthcare Science posi tions.

34. When coding Public Health England scientific posts, the entire range of the ‘U’ matrix (i.e. U*A-M) is available to use in ensuring the best match between the scientific Division/Theme and Area of Work value. PHE posts
are identified by the ‘Employer’ field rather than the Occupational Code. The coding of PHE scientific posts must follow the general criteria for the choice of Job Role as for Healthcare Science positions.

35. When using the codes U*B (Infection Sciences) linked with the Area of Work value ‘Decontamination Science’, the only available Occupational Codes are U5B, U8B, and U9B – the codes for Support Staff or Trainees.
The codes UAB-U4B must not be used when linked to this AoW. This is because there are no accredited Healthcare Science training curricula available at the current time to support the development of qualified posts, and
therefore no post holders to meet the qualified Job Role criteria.

36. Occupation Codes U1* are to be used to record Advanced Practitioners who have the protected title of Clinical Scientist. The corresponding Job Role of 'Healthcare Scientist Advanced Practitioner' should also be used.

37. Occupation Codes U3* are to be used to record Advanced Practitioners including those staff with the protected title of Biomed ical Scientist. The corresponding Job Role of 'Healthcare Science Practitioner Advanced
Practitioner' should also be used.

38. Ensure that all staff recorded as Advanced Practitioners fulfil the following criteria:

Advanced Practitioner role - requiring an experienced registered healthcare practitioner to have acquired an expert knowledge ba se, complex decision-making skills and clinical capabilities.
Their practise is characterised by a high degree of autonomy and is underpinned by a master’s level award or equivalent that encompass clinical practice, leadership and management, education and research, with
demonstration of core capabilities and area specific clinical competence.

The summary aligns to the Multi-professional framework for advanced clinical practice in England
(https://www.hee.nhs.uk/sites/default/files/documents/Multi-professional%20framework%20for%20advanced%20clinical%20practice%20in%20England.pdf)

39. Staff working in GP Practices e.g. Phlebotomists, should be coded to the appropriate level and area of work as staff working in secondary care, but should be identified by selecting 'GENGP’ in the 'Position Workplace
Organisation Code’ field on ESR.

General Definition Notes for the new Healthcare Science U Matrix

The Following definitions are provided for Historical context as the names may still be used locally, particularly in the context of recruitment.

ATOs are Assistant Technical Officers and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. They would generally be scientific staff with less formal training, working mainly in a 'support' capacity, ranging
between AfC 1 and 3, with more on the job training than formal training. This is more of a historic grade, but is still used in parts of the NHS.

MLAs are Medical Lab Assistants and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. Such roles are similar in scope and level to ATOs as described above, typically they are responsible for supporting
biomedical scientists in the delivery of patient care. They may carry out a wide range of functions in pathology laboratories, including preparation of test media, making up and sterilising chemical solutions
and separating blood serum and plasma.

Staff currently coded within systems such as ESR with the Job Role of Medical Laboratory Assistant should be recoded to the most relevant current Job Role - please refer to the latest NWD Specification
Document for more detail.

MTOs are Medical Technical Officers and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. Such roles would range between AfC Band 4 for newly qualified staff, to band 7 for senior MTOs. Though this term
is still used in parts of the NHS it is predominantly a relic of the pre-Agenda for Change pay structure of the NHS, where there were specific MTO pay grades (from MTO 1 - broadly equivalent to AfC 4 - to
MTO 5 - broadly equivalent to AfC 7). These are scientific staff who have undertaken training and are therefore able to hold varying degrees of responsibility in their work, especially for the operation and
maintenance of equipment.

MLSOs are Medical Laboratory Scientific Officers and relates to pre-Agenda for Change Pay Scales. Such roles are similar in scope and level to MTOs as described above, though at a slightly higher level
of qualification, with trained MLSOs tending to start on AfC Band 5. They analyse medical specimens such as blood and tissue to assist doctors with the diagnosis and treatment of disease. All their work is
based on a detailed knowledge of biological, biochemical and chemical processes.

Notes for the general payments matrix

1. Non-funded staff includes staff employed on projects funded by the Department of Health or other outside sources, and staff
whose salaries are recharged to another non-NHS employer or organisation.

2. Code Z2E includes Chairmen and other non-executive board members. Please do not code these staff to the G matrix.

3. Code Z2F includes bursary payments, pensions and other payments such as relocation expenses.

4. The Medical and General Staff codes, 976 - M&D Retainer Scheme; 977 - Medical Fees LA Services; 978 - GP Bed / Casualty
fund; 979 - Payment to Clinical Member of Management Team; 996 - Medical Research Council, were inherited values which pre-
dated the development of the current Occupation Code structure in the mid 1990s. The codes were not of national interest, were
excluded from published data and have therefore been retired. Medical Research Council was retired as part of the NWD 3.4
uplift, the other four were retired in the NWD 3.3 uplift.

996 Medical Research Council

5. Macmillan nurses, Marie Curie Nurses and 'Sure Start' funded nurses should only be included as non-funded staff whilst they
are not being paid directly by the NHS. Once their contracts are transferred to the NHS they should be coded in the relevant area
of the N-matrix as would be the case for the rest of the nursing workforce.

Lookup Guides

The following pages contain lookup guides to help users to find the correct Occupation Code.
The Lookup Guides are intended to be used with the guidance contained in each matrix to identify the correct code is
applied. They are intended to be used for those who code NHS staff, but also for users who are involved in workforce
analysis and planning.

There are three Lookup Guides:

Alphabetic by Role / Area of Work - a comprehensive list of job titles, roles and area of work
Alphabetic by Occupation Code Group - a comprehensive list of job titles, roles and areas of work listed by each
Occupation Code group
Occupation Code Lookup - This lookup guide provides a cumulative list of all Occupation Codes that have existed, and
not all of the codes are necessarily open valid ones at this present time. They may not be available for coding current staff,
though they have been available in the past and are therefore required for timeseries analysis.

Also, for the purpose of consistent reporting all the locum codes starting 1 and 2 are converted to 0 or 9 respectively as
part of the processing undertaken by NHS Digital, so that they can be reported alongside their substantive counterparts.

Please note, the use of ampersands (&) are gradually being phased out of workforce data standards. Until this is complete,
certain values may differ slightly between NHS England, the NWD and ESR.

Change to reporting for Post Registration Nursing, midwifery and health visitor learners:

Following the changes resulting from the NHS Digital consultation on its workforce publications the post-registration
learners have been moved into the qualified element of the publication groupings and are no longer included in the support
staff grouping along with the pre-registration learners. This change has been reflected in the Analysis Guides.

Additionally other Occupation Codes have moved between staff groups and staff groups in NHS Digital publications have
been updated or created - these changes are also reflected in the Analysis Guides at the end of this manual. More detail
on the outcome of the consultation is available here:
