The UK’s largest union has urged its members to reject the latest local government pay offer.

UNISON has followed Unite and GMB in recommending its members vote against the 3.2% pay offer in a consultative ballot.

UNISON head of local government Mike Short commented: ‘Given the many years of underwhelming or even non-existent wage rises workers have endured, this offer falls some way short.

‘The union’s local government committee is recommending staff reject this offer. It will now be up to school and council workers to decide what they want to do next.’
