NJC Pay Award 2020-21 Agreed

​

The joint UNISON /UNITE/ GMB claim is based on the contention  that local government workers have delivered efficiency savings year-on-year against huge pressure and that the claim must not be funded by cutting conditions. They say paying local government staff properly is an investment in local services and the economy.
