NHS Workforce - Doctors - by Grade and Specialty

These statistics relate to the contracted positions within English NHS organisations and may include those where the person assigned to the position is temporarily absent, for example on maternity leave. Full Time Equivalent (FTE) refers to the proportion of each role’s full time contracted hours that the post holder is contracted to work. 1 would indicate they work a full set of hours, 0.5 that they work half time.

Note that the methodology for these statistics changed from December 2015. More information is available from the additional links below.
