Don't impose, negotiate!

Falkirk Council UNISON members have lobbied their council and the SNP Annual Conference in Perth against threats to tear up everyone's existing contracts and impose new pay, grades and conditions.

This is an attempt by the Council to impose their proposed job evaluation on staff rather than negotiate the changes needed by equal pay legislation and the single status agreement.

Gray Allan, UNISON Falkirk's Branch Secretary said, "Members have shown their anger about the council's threats. "UNISON has made it clear that we do not accept their attempt to force people to accept worse pay and conditions".
