Fair Deal
Why we're fighting for a fair deal
But council workers are being offered a pay rise of just 2.45%. Take inflation into account and it's a pay CUT. That's why hundreds of thousands of our members stood together to take action in July.
Now the employers have agreed to come back to the table, UNISON is leading the negotiations to improve the pay and conditions of our members.
The services our members provide are essential to local communities. And unless we get a fair settlement, those communities will suffer. Services will simply get worse as councils continue to lose committed staff and struggle to find new employees prepared to work for such low pay and poor conditions.
We empty your bins, clean your schools, conduct your marriages and civil partnerships, care for your parks, check the safety of your food and look after your children in nurseries, schools and in care. And so much more.
In exchange, all we are asking for is your support for a fair deal.
