Decision Maker: Cabinet
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To discuss and agree on the approach to be
taken to pay for leavers.
Decisions:
Councillor Mullin introduced the report and explained that the annual cost of living pay award, if any, was often agreed part way through a financial year. Previously it had been the Council’s practice to retrospectively pay that award to employees who left before the award was agreed, if it was requested.
The Corporate Manager, People and Organisational Development outlined the three options which were available.
RESOLVED:
That the current practice cease with immediate effect and a policy decision be made that employees will only be entitled to receive payment for increases awarded as part of the national negotiating process if they are in employment on the date that any collective agreement is achieved.
