Pay Pals - Pay in the public sector has been under scrutiny

Share:    

Pay in the public sector has been under scrutiny recently after Panorama disclosedthat more than 9

,000 public sector workers earn more than the Prime Minister and over38,000 earn 100,000. The disclosures lead to a furore, and the Public Sector PeopleManagers' Association (PPMA) has called for calm, saying that there is a need for"mature discussions between employers, employees and trade unions across the whole ofthe public sector to address these issues positively and constructively".

The PPMA considers that using a remuneration committee, composed of non-executivedirectors or locally elected politicians, will help ensure that enhancedaccountability, transparency and objectivity become the norm in setting public sectorsenior salaries. This should, it said, help to further address the many validconcerns and opinions expressed by members of the public, ministers and mediacommentators.

In June, David Cameron asked economist Will Hutton to examine ways to preventdisparities of pay that lead to the top paid employees in the public sector earning20 times or more as much as the lowest paid. Mr Hutton's review will include staffcovered by the senior salaries review body, non-departmental bodies and managers inlocal government and the NHS. His remit does not include the BBC or the Royal mail.
