Members’ duties to notify us about changes were clarified in the new subscriptions policy, now agreed by our national executive and due to take effect from 1 January 2009.
The aim is to improve our central records and help us to better communicate with members.
The policy also introduced a new unrecognised rate for agency workers under the age of 22 years of one third of the maximum subs, currently £3.86 a month.
This aims to help us recruit agency workers and reflects the lower national minimum wage for the under-22s.
Branches can request a copy of the new policy by emailing our membership records team on membership@pcs.org.uk
