(05/09/07) Representatives of UNISON’s local government members yesterday voted to reject the employers’ revised offer of 2.475% and a new minimum rate on scale point 4 of £6 per hour.
The NJC committee – UNISON members of the sector’s negotiating body, the national joint council – decided to ask the union’s local government service group executive and industrial action committee to authorise an industrial action ballot.
A meeting of the industrial action committee will be arranged in the near future.
