The majority of workers working for companies that have seen severe declines in revenue are I would say taking a hit. Any company that has seen its incommings fall below its outogings has geneally either cut staff or wages. The PS employer (the state) is in this postion, and must cut staff and/or wages. Simple fact, and it goes beyond a simple embargo or head freeze, it must be actual pay freezes and redundancies. |
The majority of workers are not taking any hit at all, this is just spin. The public sector has shed workers and will shed workers. We are in a recession caused by laisse-fare reagonomnics, not by workers in the public sector and what has to be pointed put to you is that when the celtic tiger was roaring and workers in private companies where sharing large bonus's etc, the workers in the public sector were not posting here crying about it.
