Apparently only 25 people respnded to the last consultation...thats why it is being done again. I have replied and gone for the above cost of living increase. People on the bottom of the heap are doing it hard, usually on short contracts and having to travel around. If you cant find the money or the decency within you to pull the lowest paid upwards and out of the Shite then take a hard look at yourself.
The no increase wage options and increase pensions are a bit of a smoke screen-they support the council/govt units who have pay freezes and already pay above 8% on their pensions. These options mean that they do not have to do a thing financially-full steam sideways......
