SOUTH AYRSHIRE
COUNCIL SET TO IMPOSE NEW PAY SCHEME
South Ayrshire Councillors met last
week and agreed to proceed with a Single Status package of pay,
conditions and new
grades for its staff.
UNISON South Ayrshire branch has rejected the proposals.
UNISON has
participated within this lengthy process and has been successful in
gaining
many improvements to the initial proposals.
Renee Gillan UNISON branch secretary said “The
council failed to fully
meet our members expectations and left UNISON South Ayrshire branch
with no
alternative other than to inform the council we could not agree to the
proposals
on offer to our membership”
These proposals were passed at council on the 21st
April 2009
without the agreement of UNISON South Ayrshire Branch.
UNISON will continue
to campaign on our members behalf. Billy Cooper Branch Chair stated
“As
employees are informed of the changes to their pay we will be holding
Surgeries
over the coming weeks. The dates, venues and times will sent to all
members in
an edition of our members bulletin” |
