A number of unions have called industrial action to take place on Thursday 10th July. Public sector workers are protesting the imposition of a 1% pay rise – which would represent yet another year where their living standards decline (taking into account inflation).

Irrespective of whether the UK economy is in a sound position, the country is already and is predicted to continue registering growth. And workers must take their share – as many are expected to do.

Public sector workers will be joined by RMT members at Transport for London who will be taking a further 24 hours of joint strike action, protesting TfL’s plans to impose their “Pay for Performance” proposals.

RMT will always back workers fighting to achieve a fair deal. RMT members and activists are therefore encouraged to offer campaigning support to colleagues working in the public sector in their industrial action over pay on 10th July.
