Myth

Public service workers have been cushioned from the recession

The facts:

The real value of local government workers’ wages has fallen by 18% since 2010.

Pay rises have been below inflation in eight of the last 17 years.

Many have seen terms and conditions cut at local level.

Frozen pay doesn’t just affect you today – it will cut the value of your pension too.

 

Pay in the public sector has fallen by 18% since the Politics of Austerity kicked in from 2010. On Saturday 21 June 50,000 people marched against ‘Austerity’ in London yet the media did not cover it. Make sure your voice is heard by taking part on 10 July
