Dear RMT Member,
RATES OF PAY AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2024 – SWIETELSKY CONSTRUCTION COMPANY
In line with Union Policy, a pay claim for an increase in pay and improved terms and conditions has been submitted to the company. Your negotiators have had talks with the company and an improved offer has now been tabled, consisting of:
- A 5% increase on basic salary, backdated to 1st April 2024
- Increase in daily meal allowances to a total of £40, increased from £36
The company will also review pension provision over the next 12 months, to improve provision for the 2025 claim.
Having carefully considered the offer and the views of your Regional Organiser, the union’s National Executive Committee has instructed me to hold an e-referendum of you and your colleagues with a recommendation to vote ‘YES’ to accept the offer.
The referendum will close at 11:00 am on Tuesday 21st May 2024.
