SCOTLAND’S largest health union has suspended its NHS strike ballot to consult members over the Scottish Government’s latest pay offer, it has announced.
Unison will ask members if they are willing to accept the £2205 flat rate pay offer for all NHS staff effective from April this year, following a meeting of its health committee this afternoon.
The union had begun balloting its 50,000 NHS members - including nurses, midwives, domestics, porters and admin workers - for strike action earlier this month, recommending they back walkouts.
