Defend your Pension and Redundancy Pay

Members the Government have passed legislation which severely attacks our Pension rights and our Redundancy Pay.

There is already evidence that cuts

 and sackings are coming our way as already employers are using fire and rehire to cut the Terms and Conditions of their workforce British Gas and British Airways to name a few.

This latest attack is designed to cut the amount you will get in the event you are made redundant.

Please can you email your MP to sign this Early Day Motion.

“ That this House notes with concern that with the prospect of potentially significant further cuts in jobs in local government, the Government is seeking to drive through plans to cut the pension or severance payments to public sector members of the Local Government Pension Scheme aged 55 and above; and supports those trade unionists campaigning both to expose the implications of the Government’s plans and to oppose their imposition.”
