Union boss condemns 'unrealistic' approach
A union boss has condemned what she calls an 'unrealistic' approach to public sector pay.
Manx nurses, civil servants and manual workers were all awarded pay rises last month, following months of disagreement and arbitration with government.
It's in excess of a 1% cap on wage increases seen across in the UK.
But Prospect head Angela Moffatt claims there is an increasing disdain for the public sector, perpetuated by years of austerity politics - and negotiations are getting harder to manage.
She's calling for less hostility towards the sector:
Disruption at Ronaldsway airport following incident with light aircraft
Hopes for better working relationship between government and hospitality sector
'A lot of work to do' on low income housing
Public servants killed in the line of duty eligible for new award
Multi-million pound Villiers development recommended for approval
Rosalind Ranson row draws to a close
