The Civil Service pay system is broken beyond repair 📢📢 Our response to the Taxpayers' Alliance analysis of Civil Service numbers and pay.

🚨The Civil Service pay system is broken beyond repair and needs reform🚨 @mikeclancy1 has written to the Minister for the Cabinet Office alongside @FDAGenSec today to express our concerns over the current system and to request a meeting as a matter of urgency.

"We want to see a pay structure that rewards talent, knowledge and expertise so that the civil service can recruit and retain skilled staff." More on our joint letter to the Cabinet Office Minister with @FDA_union in @CSWnews civilserviceworld.com/news/article/w…

Public Services Sector Reps Meeting this morning; discussing how members actions bought the government back to the table ✊🏼 @ProspectUnion

General Secretary @mikeclancy1: "We welcome this offer by the government which in principle addresses the three issues at the heart of this dispute. We will now consult our public service reps on the substance of the offer and formally respond to the government in due course.”

Following our members' industrial action in the Civil Service, the government has made an improved offer of a £1,500 payment for 2022/23 to recognise the cost-of-living crisis. Full statement: prospect.org.uk/news/prospect-…

Mike Clancy, the general secretary of Prospect, which represents tens of thousands of technical and specialist staff such as government scientists, said his union was entering these talks in good faith, hence our calling off the strike action due 7 June theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

Throughout this dispute, we have been clear that: ▶️ our members should not be treated worse than other workers in the public sector. ▶️ they deserve a pay deal that recognises the cost-of-living crisis that began last year. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
