Nottinghamshire County Council are proposing to dramatically cut the salaries of administrative staff and other low-paid workers after job evaluation processes. Hundreds of staff are being asked to accept pay cuts ranging from £2000 to over £8000 in monetary terms - around 20-25% of our salaries. This is unacceptable. This petition will be sent to the Chief Executive, Councillors, Heads of Service and Job Evaluation team of Nottinghamshire County Council. Please sign it and pass it on to as many people as you can - you deserve better than this offer. You deserve the wages of the job you signed up for.

My sister works for the council and this would ruin her. She has a family to look after.

How on earth are people supposed to pay rent and food with cuts like this?? Disgraceful treatment of staff who keep everything running.

Ridiculous proposal. They already work hard enough for their money without having it snatched away. STOP THIS NOW.

Fair pay for honest work. Do not penalize employees for the council's bad planning.

Absolute joke. The higher ups are fine but they always squeeze the little guy.

Unacceptable. Nobody can afford to lose that much cash these days with prices going up on everything.
