NSW public servants are considering industrial action after the Industrial Relations Commission (IRC) granted them pay rises of only 0.3%:
The wages of more than 400,000 public sector workers will increase by 0.3 per cent over the next 12 months, after a ruling by the NSW Industrial Relations Commission (IRC).
The NSW Government in May moved to freeze wages for one year due to the economic impacts of COVID-19, in an effort to save the state $3 billion.
