PCS live 24 April – hear how reps are getting the vote out
PCS reps will share how they are getting the vote out in our national strike ballot at a live event at 7pm on 24 April.
The reps will join PCS General Secretary Fran Heathcote and acting president Martin Cavanagh.
Our ballot of members working for 171 bargaining areas runs until noon on 13 May and if you haven’t had a ballot paper or you have lost yours, you have until 28 April to request one.
Members in the Scottish devolved sector are not included in the ballot as they agreed a two-year pay deal last year.
The PCS Live event, chaired by acting national president Martin Cavanagh, is your chance to hear from PCS General Secretary Fran Heathcote and reps and to ask your questions about the ballot and potential strike action. The event will also be signed by a BSL interpreter.
Email your questions in advance to editor@pcs.org.uk or ask them online on the night.
