Local Government Services Pay Agreement April 2023
Following the closure of the GMB ballot on 24 October 2023, confirmation from the Local Government Association was received on the afternoon of 1 November 2023 that the pay award for local government services (those employees on ‘Green Book’) has been reached.
The pay award increase is £1,925 across all spinal points (up to point 43) on the pay scales and 3.88% on all other points and allowances.
This period covers 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2024.
Unite has refused to include its details in the NJC pay agreement circular, but the Constitutional requirement has been met, which means the pay award can be implemented.
