There has been strong public support for a petition launched late last week calling on the PSIS to drop their claim to limit future wage increases to no more than inflation.
The petition was emailed to Finsec members but has also been forwarded on as a significant number of public signatories put their name to the call for fair and freely negotiated wage increases.
Over 700 Finsec members and members of the public have signed the petition that was presented to the PSIS on the first day of collective agreement negotiations yesterday.
Some comments on the petition include:
“ have been with your bank for over 20 years and urge you to respect them enough to freely and fairly negotiate a competitive wage increase to reward and retain highly skilled loyal staff to both PSIS and its customer base.”
“he reputation of PSIS will be completely tarnished if you insist on linking pay to CPI (which only includes some of the cost of living increases and is mostly meaningless). I would stop recommending you to people and praising you fulsomely at every chance I get!”
“M partner and I are currently account holders at PSIS - if this restriction on fair bargaining were to go through we would seriously consider our future with PSIS.”
