Unite members at Hull Citizens Advice in historic first strike action over pay

Unite members at Hull & East Riding Citizens Advice are beginning strike action over a pay dispute with their employer.

For more than 20 years, our members have had an agreement with Hull CAB to give pay increases in line with the local authority NJC pay scale. For over 10 years, this has meant workers receiving zero or below-inflation pay increases.

In 2022/23, the NJC award was larger, and faced with this the employer will not pay up and has broken the long-term deal with Unite members.

Hull CAB has healthy reserves which have increased from £100k to £1.1 million over the last 10 years, and it has an annual income of £3.4 million. It can easily afford to meet our members’ reasonable demands.

Join us at the first day of strike action at 9am this Monday 31 July outside the Wilson Centre, Alfred Gelder Street, Hull, HU1 2AG

If you’re in area, please try and make it along to the picket.

Let’s make sure our members win.
