Ballot on Telefonica deal
The CWU communication workers’ union is balloting members over a pay deal at Telefonica (O2) with a recommendation to accept.
The deal provides for a 2.5% across-the-board pay rise that flows through to allowances.
It also secures pay progression payments worth from 1% to 1.6% for technical specialist, business support and technical engineering grade employees who are not at the top of their pay spine, apart from those who have been ranked as “under-performers”.
The ballot closes on 12 March.
