Council worker in Scotland accept revised pay offer
THOUSANDS of Unite members working for councils in Scotland have overwhelmingly accepted a revised pay offer from their employers.
The offer from the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (Cosla) was backed by 71 per cent in a union ballot.
It represents a minimum cash increase of £1,292 for the lowest-paid council workers, equivalent to 5.2 per cent for those earning around £25,000.
