Nursing union to ballot members over strike action
Royal College of Nursing members will be balloted over strike actionThe postal ballot will take place from 1 to 21 June49 minutes agoIt comes after the latest pay offer from Manx Care of a 2% pay increase on top of a 4% rise applied last OctoberRCN north west regional director Estephanie Dunn said the union's members "have decided that enough is enough".The proposed deal also contained an additional unconsolidated lump sum of £300.
Ms Dunn said as those negotiations had "not been successful", a ballot over strike action was "the last option open to us". "Promises of a better future have never materialised and our members continue to struggle to make ends meet while working in intolerable conditions,” she added. She said nursing had experienced years of pay cuts and workforce numbers were being used as a "mechanism to balance budgets".
The postal ballot will take place from the 1 to 21 June with any strike action to take place within six weeks of the ballot closing.
