While we are on the subject of the pay offer. Don't believe senior management when they tell you that the improvements to progression from minima to maxima has been included because that's what the majority of members want. They have actually included it because PCS have equal pay claims in stating that the long time it takes to get from min to max actually discriminates against women.
So it's because they are running scared of being sued.
And of course because of the extra emphasis on progression, those people on the max are getting terrible deals.
Vote YES to strike action, and Yes to action short of a strike.
A couple of points. How will I know that management have imposed my next years payrise when it's nil, zippo, zilch, zero, this pay award is dead if management hadn't nailed it to the perch it would be pushing up daisies.
ReplyDeleteOh that's right I'll know because I'll get my non-consolidated lump sum. So that's alright then.
And two. To fund this amazing award I understand that the performance bonus pot has been reduced. This means that if you got £200 for being one of the 40% majority(Don't start me on how 40% is a majority)this year, then next year you can look forward to £120. Well worth acheiving those challenging targets. Keeeeep Dancing
