A fair deal for public service workers

This year your pay matters more than ever. Why?

Mortgages and rents are increasing; fuel bills are increasing; food prices are on the rise. That's why pay is important.

The government says you must get 2% for the next three years, but inflation is over 4%. At a time when pay rises in the private sector are running near 4% the government is asking you to take a pay cut and accept half the going rate.

We say 'No'. You deserve a fair deal for improving public services and making a real difference to local communities. We want to make sure our members are respected and rewarded with fair pay.

Join the Pay Matters Campaign for a fair deal for all public service workers.
