FIGHTBACK
IN GOVERNMENT SERVICES’
Speaker

Trades Council open meeting on

PCS pay
campaign-Repeal the Trade Union Act
Hard working
civil servants have seen the value of their pay fall through the floor over the
past decade. They need a pay rise.
Public and Commercial Services Union (PCS)
members in the civil service voted by four to one in favour of strike action and
action short of strike over pay. The ballot turnout of 47.7%, was the highest
ever achieved, but is still just under 3,000 votes short of reaching the
required 50% threshold.
In a
politically motivated attack on workers’ rights, the coalition government
introduced an undemocratic restriction with the Trade Union Act 2016 requiring
a 50% turnout threshold and other restrictions.
