People are free to leave for better pay elsewhere.
Or retrain in an industry that has a future.
The days of unions are over…apathy..back doordeals..
The interest on the money between april and november is the real elephant in the room.

Does anyone know why a pay award due to be paid from the 1st April our unions have given until end of April to respond on the claim what kind of nonsense is that. Again the pay claim was settled in October for last year what have they possibly been doing in the intervening period apart from asking for the same amount as last year

Every social worker in the country could vote to strike and we’d still not get the mandate. The 3 public sector unions are too big with too many members from disparate roles and services. Until there is a Union dealing solely with Adults/Children’s services nothing can or will change.

Last year the board that makes pay recommendations to the government accepted that a significant pay rise was justified in the sector. But they could not recommend this because of the way local authorities are funded. Local authorities everywhere are on the verge of bankruptcy. The government is kicking the can down the road in addressing the funding issue. A decent pay rise that we all deserve would bankrupt most if not all councils. Because of this we are in a terrible negotiating position. The general public aren’t really that bothered if we go on strike. Maybe refuse collection but certainly not social work. It isn’t visible. Because of this I will be voting to accept the first offer put forward at the first opportunity.

In reply to Cath Howard. Thankyou for mansplaining what a union is to me. I'm perfectly aware of what a union is and what powers they do or do not have. The current set up of 3 unions is counter productive to the negotiating position of us, they can't agree and by the time they ballot people half the year has passed. I have voted to strike every single time, but the process drags on so long it plays into the hands of the employer. And the reality is, the public care less about us and local government than darlings such as the NHS.

Social workers, us, all of us, do our best in our jobs but Pauline is right, we do at best next to nothing and generally absolutely nothing when it comes to engaging with our union on the pay claim. Year in year out we don’t use our vote, we ignore the ballot then get incandescent that what we think we are entitled to and deserve in pay isn’t given to us. We then blame the union , our employers and the government rather than take responsibility for the outcome. This is just fact. It may be uncomfortable but it is. Nothing WOW about it actually.

In reply to Anita. Hi Anita This is quite straightforward. The money saved by not paying the deal till November/December is astronomical across the entire country. The savings invested by Local Authorities result in a return that either pays for or at least severely mitigates the cost of the settlement. It happens every year! A cynic might think this was a cooked up plan between the Unions and the LGA. I am a cynic!
