The Wait is Over ‚Äö?Ñ?¨ Happy Pay Day!

AMES has finally received the OK from the Workplace Authority on our new Enterprise Agreement which means that you will receive pay rises in your pay tomorrow - Thursday 14th August - with ‚Äö?Ѭ¢ 4.5% to be backdated to 5th February 2008 ‚Äö?Ѭ¢ 3% will then be backdated to 1st July 2008 ‚Äö?Ѭ¢ another 1.5% will be paid on 1st July 2009, and ‚Äö?Ѭ¢ a further 1.5% will be paid on 1st March 2010.

This pay outcome puts AMES at the forefront of public sector pay outcomes in recent times.

The front loading of the pay rises (7.5% in the first 6 months) is particularly beneficial for members.

In addition, AMES employees should have received their 1% performance pay in January 2008, and CPSU will be working on a new classification structure in the next 6 months that will incorporate the 1% performance pay in a new incremental salary structure.

CPSU would like to thank its members and in particular, delegates Europe Tokatlidis and Dora Troupiotis.

Please distribute happy pay day material around your workplace and remind your colleagues that Receiving is Great but Contributing is Greater!
