•Members vote 'yes' for action
•All out 8 & 9 March
A majority of members voting in the national ballot have voted in favour of strike action by 63.4% to 36.6%, and in favour of action short of a strike by 81.4% to 18.6%.
The ballot result sends a clear message to the employer that PCS members will not accept cuts in their accrued rights to fair redundancy compensation at a time when all the main political parties are planning deep public spending cuts.
The national executive (NEC) would like to thank all reps and members for their work in delivering a successful ballot result.
It was agreed to write to the minister for the civil service, making clear our aim of reaching a negotiated settlement and calling on the government to return to talks.
The NEC agreed that notice will be given of a two day national strike on Monday 8 and Tuesday 9 March, and a national overtime ban.
