Rob Callister hopes the unions will support efforts to ensure departments stick to their budgets
The chair of the Public Services Commission says everyone working within government deserves a pay rise, but it has to be balanced with what government can afford.
Rob Callister's comments come after a two percent pay award for staff was factored into this year's Budget.
PSC workers received a three percent increase for the 2025-26 financial year.
Mr Callister says the perception that public sector workers earn more money than those in the private sector is also a factor:
Southern 100 planning to run classic sidecars for 2026
BMA to ballot doctors in the IOM for industrial action
Manx air quality 'significantly' better than UK average
Visitors told "take extra care" as TT Fan Park to reopen
