The branch consultation on the pay claim for 2024/25 has now concluded and members have overwhelmingly endorsed the claim.
The following claim will now be submitted to the NICS management on behalf of members in the NICS and in those ALBs that mirror NICS pay.
- Inflation, plus an additional cost of living increase of 5% on all points and allowances.
- That the 2024 pay claim covers an 8-month period (1 August 2024 – 31 March 2025).
- That future pay awards would be linked to the financial year (1 April – 31 March).
- That we seek the removal of the legacy of performance pay and the removal of the reference to the “90 days’ satisfactory performance” in the previous appraisal year.
- That we seek a commitment from the Management Side to engage with TUS on a long-term pay/recruitment strategy that has pay restoration at its centre.
It is our hope that engagement on the claim will commence as soon as possible. Further bulletins will issue as appropriate.
