Pensions latest

UNISON is gearing up to take the pensions campaign forward in 2012 with our third pensions summit, bringing together lay activists from across the union, taking place at the UNISON Centre on 10 January.

All the service group executives involved in the NHS and local government pension schemes will meet on the same day to consider the latest updates from the sector negotiations and decide the way forward.
Everyone deserves a decent pension
