PGDS members have voted to accept a revised offer from the Company for the 2015 Pay Review.

52% of members voted to reject the original offer of a 3% pay pot but with no guarantees or assurances on how the pot was to be distrbuted.

Further talks were held as members held firm on demanding a minimum 2% increase for those within the market median range and rated successful or higher.

During the talks the Company were able to provide Unite the guarantee members wanted which enabled a new ballot to take place.

In the new ballot 92% of members voted in favour of the new offer, 8% rejected with a 54% turnout.

Steve O’Donnell, Senior Rep stated “Unite members can no longer accept the concept of merit pots with no rules around how they are to be distributed.  The time has come for profitable organisations to guarantee employees that if they do their job they will be recieve a minimum increase negotiated by the union”.
