I have said it for years, social workers don’t need to strike but just work to rule, working only their contracted hours. The whole child care system would collapse in a few weeks. It keeps going on the goodwill and long hours of most managers and practitioners trying to get the work completed.

Given that if you are a union member you are “these unions” the better question is what are you doing to make the unions work better for you? Ever organised a union meeting? Ever attended a union meeting? Ever submitted a motion for your union conference? Ever voted in a union election? Ever voted in a motion put forward by your union? I’m a union rep and if the apathy of union members ever reaches the level of snipes and moans from the sidelines I’d be a much happier and less frustrated one. Frankly get active or keep silent is my level now.

Most of the social workers I work with want their money now and would except the offer as striking for us is the last option anyone wants.The Unions will achieve nothing again except cause hard ship to the lower paid by delaying the pay rise when people need it.As for unions starting balloting members so late in the year causing further delays it’s shameful who are these unions working for.

July the 4th ? I personally think this is a disgrace from the unions , offer was made in February , it’s taken this long to sort out a ballot , strike action won’t take place till probably September , agreement will be reached in April at the earliest , probably a two year pay deal with less back pay . And the unions will say it’s a win when in fact it will end up being a win for the government. The whole system needs a reboot including the unions that in my opinion are working for the government not the people who pay for their service .

Social Workers need to be prepared to strike I order to create the resources to protect children and support families

The difficulty for us with striking is that although we lose a.days pay, we still have to complete our work. Our absence will hardly be noticeable.

In reply to Sally. It couldn't be more about the children. You may know this but to avoid any doubt lets spell it out. Poor pay and conditiions has led to an increase in social work vacancy levels which in turn has led to an increase in the use of agency social workers - that in turn leads to children having more social workers. The more social workers a child has, the poorer the quality of service (relationships, consistency, delays in decision making etc). Social workers turn to agency work as the hourly rate of pay is better, which means they are in a sightly better position (in the short-term) to pay off a student-loan or meet say (rising) housing costs. VOTE YES!

Yes but “what about the children”?
