You must vote by 12 noon on Monday 22^nd February if you want to have your say on the new public service agreement, called Building Momentum, which features pay improvements and progress on restoring the so-called ‘Haddington Road hours.’

The union has extended the ballot period to maximise the opportunity for members to participate. This became possible when the Irish Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU) put back its deadline for individual unions to reach a decision.

Because of Covid-19 restrictions, Fórsa members can only vote via our electronic voting platform. You should have received your unique code by email. If you don’t have it, contact our email helpline at ballothelpdesk@forsa.ie NOW.

Don’t delay, or you will lose your chance to influence decisions that affect your pay and working conditions.

Fórsa’s elected National Executive has recommended ACCEPTANCE of this deal because:

• Its pay measures mean improvements for all, heavily skewed towards those earning less than €50,000 a year
  
  
• It’s the first public service agreement to address the additional working time introduced under the 2013 Haddington Road agreement (the ‘Haddington Road hours’)
  
  
• It maintains important protections against outsourcing.

Don’t let others make this crucial decision about your pay and working conditions. Cast your vote before 12 noon on Monday 22^nd February.
