Since the formation of PCS, the Commercial Sector has had a growing role in the union, bringing together representatives from the major privatised contracts in the civil service.
We've had some major successes, including driving the issue of the disparity between pay and conditions for ex-civil servants and those employed directly by private companies (the so called "two-tier workforce" issue).
We've established bargaining groups for some employers, and had recent successes in ensuring that unions are well represented on company Works Councils.
We would welcome feedback from you on issues that you want to know more about, as well as the information that's already there. If you have a comment, get in touch with us.
