Ahead of the ballot on the new Public Sector Pay Agreement 2024-2026 information meetings are now underway. You can find a list of upcoming information meetings here. In addition to workplace meetings, online sessions are also taking place. 

Fórsa's Communications Unit has prepared a number of resources for union members and activists. The aim of these resources is to help you inform yourself about the agreement before you cast your vote.

You can access a detailed FAQ here. 

There is a poster you can download, distribute or display in your workplace here, and a more detailed flyer for the same purpose is available here. These are A4 formats so you can easily print them on workplace printers. 

We have also produced a 'Plain English' Guide to the Agreement, which you can download here. For more information on Plain English visit the website of the National Adult Literacy Service www.nala.ie.

Voting in the Fórsa ballot will begin on Monday 19th February and will close at 12pm on Friday 15th March. All Fórsa members working in the civil and public service, and non-commercial state agencies can vote. To vote in this online ballot you will receive an email with a unique voter code and a link to our secure voting platform. It can only be used once.

Now, it's up to you – vote yes if you want the proposed pay increases or vote no if you believe we should go back to the drawing board.
