PCS Union plan represents significant escalation in a long-running dispute over pay, pension and job security demands
At least 100,000 civil servants will join one-day strike action on budget day in a significant escalation in a long-running dispute over pay, pension and job security demands.
The strike by the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) Union, which will comprise workers from across 123 government departments, is scheduled to coincide with Jeremy Hunt’s announcement of his first full budget on 15 March, as the government prepares to wrest control over the cost of living crisis and stick to its deficit reduction plan.
