News
PCS is launching a staffing campaign in the DWP. This is in response to the chronic staff shortages across nearly every area of DWP operations and the corporate centre.
Our successful campaign of industrial action won an increased pay remit, ÂŁ1500 cost-of-living payment and guarantees on redundancy terms. It also forced the Cabinet Office into a series of talks with PCS on pay and staffing.
The national executive committee has met to discuss progress in our national campaign and what needs to happen next.
114 members of staff working at Doncaster Crossgate were made redundant on 30 September following the closure of their office. The MP appeared to be ignorant of the closure and redundancies.
Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has threatened to get staffing back to pre-pandemic levels by cutting 66,000 civil service jobs; but in HMRC, the second largest department, our headcount is only around 2,500 higher than in early 2020.
