Pay and staffing policies

By law we must have a Pay Policy Statement, but we also publish our:

Trade Union Facility Time

We do not recognise any Trade Union for the purposes of consultation and negotiation.

Staff can join a Trade Union if they want to and the majority of staff who decide to become a member join UNISON. We do not have a Facility Agreement with UNISON which means activities are undertaken in staffs' own time.
