CWU announce they have REJECTED BT Group second and FINAL pay offer!
BT Pay Briefing no. 42.2022 - CWU REJECT second and FINAL pay offer from BT Group.
BT Pay Review – CWU Rejected Offer!
The BT Committee met on the 6th April 2022 to consider a further offer from BT on pay. The company had increased the offer to a £1500 flat rate (pro rata for part timers), fully consolidated increase from 1st April 2022. This increase would apply to all team members in BT, Openreach and EE.
The BT Committee unanimously rejected this offer which has been communicated to the company. The company have made it clear that this is their final offer and they intend to implement in the April salaries.
The two main reasons for rejection were;
· The offer did not meet our members’ expectations in the face of the current cost of living crisis
· The company’s intention to impose this increase in the April salaries whether we accepted it or not.
We are therefore left with no alternative but to hold an Industrial Action ballot as soon as is practicable.
The company will be communicating with employees today at 11.00 and we will be communicating direct with members via email later today.
WE NOW REQUIRE EVERY GLASGOW & MOTHERWELL BRANCH MEMBER TO ENSURE THIER HOME ADDRESS, PERSONAL EMAIL ADDRESS AND WORK LOCATION ARE CORRECT WITH US. PLEASE CONTACT THE OFFICE ON 0141 5521066 IF YOU NEED TO CONFIRM.
THIS IS VITALLY IMPORTANT!
THANKS
Anton Begley
