How do people feel about this one? Will it be short and sweet?

decent deal, a bit too long for 10.25% i will probably say no myself because im not exactly happy with it but im sure it will pass with over 90%
The usual head bangers. The individuals who always wants to strike regardless.
Thats a great deal if we're honest. It will sail through.
Figures increasing on your pay packet aren't pay rises unless they exceed inflation.
Ask anyone who lived through the Weimar Republic.
Some will no doubt try and argue its a paycut......
10.25% reported as agreed, is this correct?
That’s what it looks like yeah.
That deal would likely get voted through, even though it is still less than inflation over last couple years.
I presume this means that the original 1.5% offer from March 1st 2024 is now 2.5% and is backdated to January 1st 2024?
itll be March/April before the first increase cos the deal will have to be voted in. Id say they will split the increases in more piddly amounts than your guesses unfortunately.
So 2.5 now, backdated to 1st Jan 2024? 4% on 1st July 2024, and 4% on 1st July 2025. New deal then from 1st July 2026. Something like that?
In fairness, if the deal is what's suggested on the Twitter / X comment above I'll be happy. And possibly have to revise upwards my view of the union negotiators.
Hahaha yeah the nighttime stuff is truly pathetic. I wonder do they wear matching pyjamas.
Listening to radio one and how it went on all night. All I could picture was them all leaning back in recliners eating Dominies saying ‘no comrades, too soo to go out, let’s string it out a few hours, justify our 6 figures’
Can anyone share that IT article it's behind a paywall for me.
That will sail through , happy with that.
From X.
Yeah defo. Hopefully there’s more in 2024 then there was!
It says they’ll meet unions at 11am. Around 10% headline figures mentioned. If it’s 9.5%, you’d be hoping it’s a 2 year deal, rather than 2.5
I’d say they will share it this morning after meeting the other unions. Hard to comment yet without the breakdown but 10% is pretty cool.
Hopefully they share the information of the deal today
They’ve edited the article to include a very.
It’s a done deal according to the Irish Times
Pay deal for 385,000 public sector workers agreed after all-night talks
https://www.irishtimes.com/business/work/2024/01/26/pay-deal-for-385000-public-sector-workers-set-to-be-agreed-after-all-night-talks/
Deal close according to Union sources. Not much additional information in the article.
Could well be! Then they defo went back into negotiations I suppose. The times are odd though sometimes, they can start late
They may still be in there.
Can’t see anything , thought there would be one
Any updates on today?
page 54 outlines the dispute pay benefit
Okay, so wheres your attempt to quantify it?
I've stated what it would be at 100 per person per day - at very low numbers.
How much would it be?
At what point does it kick in?
How would it be distributed?
I doubt the unions have ever had to come close to considering these questions.
As others have stated - keeping the lights on and food on the table isn't cheap these days......
I think that if people do end up being asked to vote on strike action, they have the cold hard facts in front of them.
Strike pay isn’t given for one day strikes or even at the start of an all out.
It would be nowhere near your gross or net pay. It’s to keep the lights and some food on the table, nothing more. The size of the public sector wage bill is irrelevant.
