Unlikely to be any different this year unless pay award already agreed. It's not a "concession" for Council-based units. All Council employees work on same terms and conditions, so they won't be allowed to pay some people (eg Archaeologists) a rise in April and not others (eg Careworkers) until pay award agreed and implemented.
'All Council employees work on same terms and conditions' Oh, if only that were true.
From what I hear around the nation, there are a considerable number of archaeologists, who although employed by local authority bodies, will not be receiving the full local authority pay agreement this year.
Once again this exposes the flaws in the IFA tie-in to LA pay grades.
