prepare for action

The Northern Irelands Civil Service pay dispute is set to escalate as management rehash old offer.
NIPSA is on the march
NIPSA is on the march

After 8 months of limited action NIPSA, Northern Irelands largest trade union, has begun a process of consultation with members on a new management pay offer. The unions Civil Service Executive is recommending rejection of the offer and an escalation of the dispute to all out strike action.
If members support this position it will be an historic development and will be one of the biggest disputes Northern Ireland has ever seen. NIPSA has 22,000 members in the Civil Service working across all departments including, roads, water, planning, MOT, social security and child support agency. The overall effect of an all out strike would be the rapid grinding to a halt of large parts of the economy.
Time For Change activists have consistently called for an escalation of the dispute as the only way to achieve a victory against the government

Time For Change calls for members to reject the offer – prepare for action.


Time For change is an alliance of NIPSA members who campaign for a fighting democratic union. TFC believe that the measure of success for a union is its ability to defend and improve member’s living standards, protect jobs and services, play a role in the wider trade union movement and society and function in an open democratic manner.
