BADN launches salary survey for 2020

The British Association of Dental Nurses (BADN), the UK’s professional association for dental nurses, has launched its 2020 salary survey.

The survey is open to all dental nurses, non-members as well as BADN members, to find out how much dental nurses in the UK are being paid, as well as whether they were paid during lockdown. The survey will provide data to support the BADN’s campaign for recognition of dental nurses’ contribution to oral healthcare in the UK, and for dental nurses working in general dental practice to be paid NHS rates, instead of minimum wage.

BADN invites all dental nurses, but particularly those working in practice, to complete the survey – which is anonymous. Dental nurses completing the survey will need their P60 for the tax year ending April 2020 – all employees should have received this in April 2020 from their employer.

The survey can be accessed from the BADN website www.badn.org.uk or via https://cutt.ly/SalarySurvey2020. The closing date is December 31, 2020.
