Has your Branch Secretary got your personal mobile number and email address?
If not email the Branch mailbox with your details and we will get them added to the Nipsa distribution lists. This will help you keep upto date with any future industrial action plans.

HYBRID WORKING KEY FACTS

If you have a Work Style Agreement (WSA) in place and your management want to review it, they must have a conversation with you and come to a new agreement which you can sign if content.

Colleagues,

REVIEW OF HYBRID WORKING IMPACTS

Further to my previous circulars in relation to 40% minimum mandatory attendance, the Departmental Trade Union Side (DTUS) met yesterday and have agreed to lodge a formal, registered disagreement on the issue.

The clear case for the strike action. Pay has been seriously eroded by below inflation pay awards over many years. ⁦@nipsa⁩ https://t.co/M2vbdA7ErN

[Cool FM News @newsoncool]

🚫🚨NEW: @nipsa members will notify employers tomorrow about strike action on 18th of Jan.

🗣General Secretary @CarmelGates says if action goes ahead, the responsibility for "complete shutdown in NI" is with the Secretary of State.

She spoke to Political Reporter @jamesgould23.

[Carmel Gates 💙 @CarmelGates]

We have no expectation of negotiations on pay with the Secretary of State. We want to sit down with civil and public sector employers who have been provided with sufficient funds to negotiate above inflation pay awards now and into the future. #FairPayNow @nipsa

Branch 127 Secretary and DfC Chair doing great work.

[NIPSADfC @NipsaDfC]

DfC chairperson Kerrin Joiner has been doing great work recruiting new NIPSA members in Great Northern Tower every day this week. Lots of interest from staff, in particular agency workers who have been keen to hear more about the benefits of union membership. #NIPSA #Nipsadfc

[NIPSA - Northern Ireland Public Service Alliance @nipsa]

DAERA staff and supporters following their midnight walk-out from Belfast Port - the 5 days of action has got off to a brilliant start!
