Agenda

(Members must indicate which specific agenda item any declaration relates to.)

Disclosure by Members of “Disclosable Pecuniary Interests” (as defined by The Relevant Authorities (Disclosable Pecuniary Interests) Regulations 2012), and Members’ “Personal Interests” in accordance with paragraph 12.1 of Salford City Council’s Code of Conduct for Members.  

     (a) from Lesley Hurst - a front line Salford care worker

“When Aspire was established in 2016 through the council outsourcing a number of adult services, the council gave a commitment to Aspire staff that they would see no negative impact from the transfer. However, Aspire staff have still not received the 2022-23 NJC pay award that was paid to all directly employed council staff in December. What will the council do to ensure that those staff receive this pay award, and to ensure that those Aspire staff who are not on NJC terms and conditions receive a comparable pay increase?”

(b) from by Mike Kelly - a front line Salford care worker

“Can the council guarantee that Aspire staff will not need to face the same uncertainty every year and commit that those staff on NJC terms and conditions will receive the same pay awards as their directly employed colleagues, and that those staff who are not will also receive fair and comparable pay increases?”
