#216 FAIR PAY, FIRE STRIKE's & Firefighter Safety with Leigh Hosy-Pickett

After a meeting of the National Joint Council (NJC) on Wednesday 8 February, fire service employers came forward with a new offer of 7% on NJC-negotiated pay rates and CPD backdated to July 2022, and a further 5% from July 2023 for all Grey Book staff. 

So what will we vote ?
What are the factors to consider ?
And what will this mean for the future pay rates ?

A ballot on the offer is now open and close on Monday 6 March so I caught up with Leigh to talk about the new pay offer, the way the firefighters are being portrayed in the media & some the events of recent months
