As you know Enable have stated they are unable to offer any pay increase for 2010/11 and there is no sign of any offer coming for 2011/12. However they have committed to entering in to talks with us over the possibility of Enable adopting the Scottish Living Wage of £7.20 per hour as a minimum rate. As I write we are still seeking confirmation from Enable of a date to meet.
Whilst we haven’t had substantive discussions yet the adoption of the SLW would be a major step forward. More info on the SLW can be found at this website: http://povertyalliance.org/slw-home.asp .
