A worker at Glasgow City Council has criticised the authority’s plans to use a fire and rehire approach following a deadlock in negotiations over a new salary structure.
The council announced the move after talks aimed at resolving equal pay issues reached a stalemate. The proposed changes are connected to efforts to establish a revised system for staff pay.
A council worker said the plans amounted to letting employees down. The supplied information does not provide further details about the proposed terms, the number of staff affected or the timetable for any changes.
The latest position is that negotiations have failed to reach agreement, while the council has announced its intended course of action in response to the impasse.
