Remember if you have left an NJC employer since 1/4/24 you are entitled to ask them for the back pay- it will not happen automatically! Trudi Woodland B44 Branch Secretary
The results of the other unions ballots are in: the pay offer is agreed.
More than 100,000 GMB working in Local Government and schools have accepted the pay deal for 2024/25.
Following ballots of council, school and social care workers, GMB has written to the Local Government Association to confirm acceptance of the deal, which represents a rise of almost ten per cent for the lowest paid.
Rachel Harrison, GMB National Secretary, said:
“This pay deal is welcome and must now appear in our local government and school members’ pay packets as soon as possible – including back pay.
“We also look forward to the non-pay related parts of the deal being enacted quickly.
“GMB is now looking forward to next year and will be consulting members on pay aspirations for 25/26.
“We will be lobbying for this to be fully funded pay offer for schools and local government workers.”
