Fórsa members in the non-commercial State agencies are now voting to decide whether to back acceptance or rejection of the proposed new agreement, Building Momentum. 

 

The proposed deal will affect your pay and working conditions over the coming years. It’s also the first agreement to address the additional working time introduced under the 2013 Haddington Road agreement. And it contains important safeguards on civil service outsourcing.

 

The progressive nature of the pay measures in the deal means its percentage value is heavily skewed towards staff earning less than €50,000 a year. For example, clerical officers would see total percentage increases of 6.4% at the 1st point of the scale, 5.3% on mid-point and 3.9% at the top of scale.

 

Because of Covid-19 restrictions, Fórsa members can only vote via our electronic voting platform. You need a unique voter code to enable you to vote, and this code has been sent to eligible Fórsa members by email.

 

If you’ve not received your unique code via email, and you believe you are eligible to vote, you should contact our email helpline at ballothelpdesk@forsa.ie immediately.

 

Fórsa’s elected National Executive has given detailed consideration to the proposed agreement, and has overwhelmingly decided to recommend ACCEPTANCE in this ballot. 

 

Don’t let others make this crucial decision about your pay and working conditions. Make sure your voice is heard by casting your vote before 5.00pm on Thursday 11th February.

 

Details of the proposed new agreement, including the full text of Building Momentum, are available on www.forsa.ie
