But lets put this in perspective. Whilst BAJR (and probably the IfA) may freeze their respective salary minima, neither of those bodies is responsible for setting or negotiating archaeological salaries.
I imagine that the trade unions and employers are already taking positions on that subject. If archaeological workers want to maintain and/or increase their remuneration and improve conditions they need to start getting themselves organised, cos' if they allow the small gains we have made over the past few years to be taken away without putting up a fight, we have no-one to blame but our lily-livered selves.
