Watchdog workers to strike over 10th pay cut

HUNDREDS of workers at a healthcare watchdog have voted to strike against their 10th pay cut in a row.

Around 200 members of the Public and Commercial Services union (PCS), employed by the Parliamentary Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO) in Manchester and London have voted to strike against an imposed 2 per cent rise.

The Star understands that this is the 10th beneath-inflation pay rise for staff, who make the final decisions on complaints that are not fully resolved by NHS bodies.
