A PERSONAL THANK YOU

Can I please take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all Shropshire UNISON members who took part in last Thursday’s day of action and who took the difficult decision to stay away from work.

I know that you will all have been under tremendous pressure to come into work. I also appreciate that for many of you if will have been a very difficult decision to have made financially.

I appreciate and salute your solidarity and your courage in standing up for yourself and your fellow workers.

Dear Member, As you all know by now UNISON- alongside our sister unions within local government- have called for a day of strike action on Thursday 10th July in support of our campaign to receive a just and fair pay increase after suffering 5 years of below inflation pay rises and pay cuts. In Shropshire we have been hit particularly hard and have seen our pay packets decrease by 22% in 4 years !
