CPS Pay Update

Following the cost-of-living payment of £1,500 in July,  a government concession following widespread industrial action by PCS in many areas in the civil service, PCS is about to embark on pay negotiations with the CPS for 2023/24.

The discussions will centre around the distribution of the government pay remit of 4.5% of the pay bill, with an additional 0.5% to be spent on the lowest paid staff.

We are entering into these negotiations with an aim to ensure the most fair and beneficial settlement for our members, in line with the national PCS position on pay.

Additionally, CPS management are committed to submitting a business case on pay 2024/25 and negotiations to achieve this will begin with PCS and our fellow union, the FDA. Our priority on entering into business case discussions is to protect members’ terms and conditions, while looking to improve your work life by securing better quality job roles. 

We will keep members informed on progress.
