Council and school staff in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are worth far more than the “disappointing” pay increase they’ve been offered by employers, says UNISON today (Thursday).
The union in all 3 jurisdictions is to consult hundreds of thousands of our members on the annual cost of living pay offer made last week, with a recommendation they vote to reject it.
UNISON is calling for an improvement to pay that fairly rewards council and school staff, many of whom are in low-wage roles, for the essential services they provide.
