Employer’s fails – acceptable pay offer

Given the employer’s failure to put forward an acceptable pay offer by the review date of 1st April we are seeking your views on whether you are willing to take some form of action, up to and including strike action, in pursuit of an improved and acceptable pay offer.

UNISON’s Scottish Local Government Committee is recommending that you vote YES to indicate your willingness to take some form of action in pursuit of an improved and acceptable offer from the employer.

We believe this is now the only way to achieve movement in the employer’s position.

If you’ve not received an e-mail with your voting link please, in the first instance, check your junk/spam folders. If it’s not there and you still have not received it by 15th April please call 0800 0 857 857 or log in to MyUnison (https://www.unison.org.uk/my-unison/) to check that the details we hold for you are up to date.

If you don’t have an e-mail address on your system/your e-mail address has recently changed you can still vote as long as your membership records are updated before 18th April 2022 you will receive an e-mail with your voting link.

To update your details call 0800 0 857 857 or log in to MyUnison

If the system tells you that you have already voted when you haven’t this is a safety feature to help prevent duplicate voting. We suspect this happens when you have clicked on the ballot link and closed it before voting and the system then blocks the IP address. Members should clear their cookies and try the link again. It should then work.
