I personally think this is a very poor result. The majority of staff will receive a 2% pay rise when the Retail Price Index is currently 4.8%. This means I am effectively receiving a 2.8% pay reduction this year. As alsways the additional 1% discretionary increases will go to those whose faces ‘fit’ not those necessarily doing excellent work ‘under the radar’. Very poor indeed.

Any pay rise, no matter how small, is appreciated given the current economic climate.

This is very poor the freezing of the pay ranges yet again combined with the matrix crucifies the more experienced technical staff on whom the company depends and who can look forward to virtually no increase in pay. I would love to receive a 2% pay rise like Paul but I won’t get it.

Like Jackie I believe getting a payrise is no mean achievement this year, so bravo for securing (subject to vote) one that is comprable to the better ones being published. Getting it consolidated for over-scale employees (albeit % applied to top of their scale, not their salary) is also a plus this year.
One thing the company could do if targets are met for bonus payments, is offer up their NI savings if offering a “Bonus Sacrifice” scheme this year. Granted, in this climate staff are more likely to take the bonus than put it into their pension, but as they say “Every little helps”.
