Chief executive says talks have been a source of 'stress and anxiety'
Manx Care says it doesn't want to be negotiating pay awards late into the financial year again next year.
The healthcare provider reached an agreement with the Royal College of Nursing in the autumn, while around of third of its workers are covered by the Public Services Commission deal announced in October.
However, an offer made to medical and dental staff has been rejected, with Manx Care unable to put a revised pay offer on the table.
Chief Executive Teresa Cope is keen to reach an agreement earlier for the year ahead:
Manxman assists yacht in distress
Steam Packet 'well prepared' for TT
Driver arrested after going against one-way system on Mountain Road
Ban for Marine Drive motorist who was drunk behind wheel
TT site to open after poor weather causes delays
Suspended sentence for motorist who drove whilst three times over the limit
