Civil Service pay rises

OrbitHeadache · 2023-07-26 14:19:46

So because the Civil service are technically not public sector workers our pay increase remit per department is 4.5% and an extra 0.5% for the lowest paid. Now my understanding is the strike action was collective strike action so all departments get the same pay. So my question is 2 fold; 1) Why are individual departments…

The average pay rise for all grades AA to G6 is 4.5% + 0.5% for the lowest paid.
However for those on the lowest payscale (like me) you could end up with a raise higher than 5% , but this is negotiated by each Government Department.

Yes from what I have heard from PCS they expect that to happen.

I am one of the lowest paid so I would accept around 8% (rumoured) with open arms.
