Decision details

RECOMMENDED:     1)         That an increase of £1,925 or 4% (whichever is the greater) be applied to all salary points.

2)            That changes to annual leave and working hours are not implemented as part of the local Pay Award as any changes to terms and conditions that are negotiated nationally would continue to apply to our employees.

3)           That officers review with Unison representatives the National Settlement once finalised and report to Cabinet should any further actions be recommended.

Reason for Decision

To implement an annual pay increase for employees that balances the requirement to make financial savings with the need to recruit and retain good quality employees.
