Unite NHS Day of Protest - 18th July Cut our pay - No way! Dear Colleagues,
Cut our pay - No way!
Unite members across the country will take part in day of protest against the NHS pay offer on the 18th July 2008. Workers will be campaigning around the slogan - ‘Cut my pay? No way!’ A ballot of Unite’s health sector workers gave the union a strong mandate in favour of industrial action over the three year deal of 7.99%. Health visitors, hospitals pharmacists, health care chaplains and members in many other health care professions and support services voted overwhelmingly with 94.8% turning down the pay deal. The union is angry that the government is telling them to accept a pay deal which in the current economic climate represents a significant pay cut. On the 18th July members will demonstrate at hospitals across the country.
