PUBLIC sector workers, do you get: Paid more than minimum wage? More than 20 days holiday plus paid bank holidays?
A final salary pension? Flexible working? Up to six months full and half pay for sickness?
If you can answer “yes” to all, or most, of these, then a one per cent pay rise isn’t a bad deal, especially compared to private sector workers or the unemployed.
You should definitely count yourselves lucky.
