After our January members meeting, ASU went back to Management and put to them the unanimous position of members.

Specifically, we stated that we would accept the wages offer providing that we can retain the Sewer B allowance.
 
Management have since replied that they are not willing to do this – that the wages offer stands, but only on the proviso that Sewer B is removed.

Just a reminder, the wages offer is as follows:

 Year 1   3.25%
 Year 2   3.00%
 Year 3   3.00%
 Year 4    3.25%
 
Either we accept this offer, or we hold another protected action ballot, and try to get some bans happening.  It is now up to members.

To be clear, this is the end of the line as far as bargaining is concerned. There is no room left to negotiate – either we accept the offer, or we take action.

Question Title

* 1. What do you want to do: either accept the offer (with removal of Sewer B Allowance) OR reject the offer and hold another protected action ballot?

Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey.
