TUC calls for better pay deals to secure a stable and sustainable recovery

TUC Deputy General Secretary Frances O'Grady will warn today (Tuesday) that workers face an unprecedented attack on their living standards due to inflation, rising energy costs and tax rises, and argue that decent pay rises are vital for a stable and sustainable recovery. At a conference organised by the TUC and Incomes Data Services (IDS) in London, Frances O'Grady will explain the three key pay challenges facing unions: securing fairness for public sector workers; negotiating settlements that reflect the cost of living; and winning the argument for better wages.
