Unison reject Single Status pay model

After weeks of hearing nothing from Unison they have delivered some good news, the national office has rejected the pay model. This means there will be no need for a vote and the model will be automatically rejected. This also means we will miss the council deadline forcing them to give entitled people their increment and a hopefully a pay award. The good news is this will completely mess up the councils attempt to massage the figures, many people they claim to be staying the same or gaining will now have to be moved into loser figures. We think this is good news at it means more people will join our fight against single status.

It is going to be a cold miserable Christmas for many Wolverhampton employees who have just learnt of impending pay cuts. This site has been set up by employees of Wolverhampton Council to give all staff a forum in which to discuss the planned single status settlement which has left a large number of staff (especially in the Civic Centre) facing massive pay reductions.

Walking around the Civic Centre on Thursday and Friday it became apparent that a very large proportion of Civic Centre staff had received devastating news. Who believes the 21% is true?

We would like to use this forum to gain a clear picture of the impact of single status its effect on individuals and on service areas. How many of the people the council claim have stayed the same have lost the ability to progress up the scales?

Basically we are just trying to give people a voice, the direction this takes is up to you all. Together we can fight this wage slashing exercise.

This site is not associated with Wolverhampton Council or Unison, it will serve as an independent forum on this controversial issue.
