Pay deal to be in place from 21 December pay
COSLA Leaders met on Friday and agreed to impose the latest pay offer.
The Council have confirmed that this will be implemented and staff will receive their backpay in the 21 December pay. Read Andrew Kerr’s update, which includes the new salaries and hourly rates.
The latest offer is the same as the previous, but the uplift for some workers (GR5 to the bottom of GR11) that they were due to receive from January 2024, will now be for the full year from April 2023.
Unison suspended all strike action while they consulted their members on this offer. Unison nationally are recommending their members accept the offer, but branches—such as Edinburgh, Glasgow and Dundee—are recommending reject.
UPDATE: Unison have accepted the offer with 70% of members voting in favour.
Former employees, claim your pay
Those that have left the Council that worked there between 1 April and 3 December 2023 must complete the leavers pay claim form to receive their back pay.
The deadline for doing this is 9 January so get your claim in as soon as possible to ensure you receive your pay.
Get ready for next year
