BBC chairman Samir Shah says BBC bosses will change how they review presenters’ pay by taking their outside, paid work into account. According to reporting, the warning is aimed at presenters who “moonlight” by taking lucrative roles outside the corporation. Shah is described as telling staff that during future salary reviews, the value of external work will be considered alongside duties carried out for the BBC. The change is presented as a move to adjust compensation where presenters receive additional income from other engagements. The reporting does not specify timelines, thresholds, or whether salary cuts are automatic, but it indicates that the BBC’s approach to pay reviews will become more closely linked to the total earnings potential associated with external commitments. The sources agree on the central point that the chairman signals increased scrutiny of presenters’ outside work during salary negotiations.
