East Midlands Councils will be hosting a regional pay consultation briefing on Tuesday 20th January 2026 from 10.00am -12.00 noon.  Chief Executives, Finance Directors, HR Directors and Leaders are particularly encouraged to attend the meeting, which will be held virtually on MSTeams.

The briefing is an opportunity to meet with the national negotiators to discuss claims received from employees’ representatives and to inform the National Employers’ response.  It includes updates on the national pay spine review and the new schools support staff negotiating body.

The format of the briefing will be a pre-meeting at 10.00 to hear from trade unions about their claim for Green Book employees, followed by the Employers’ pay briefing at 10.15, so participants will receive two Teams links.
