PB requested SH to chair the meeting in his absence. SH updated the meeting regarding the meeting held on 7th June 2017.
KB responded on behalf of the staff, the main points being:-
Pay reviews not frequent enough
Line management not in place.
Lack of communication throughout the organisation.
Discussions took place regarding these issues, then outcomes were:-
Pay reviews, it was agreed that a pay review should be held every April and that is the Boards responsibility to address pay. It was proposed that staff should get a 2% increase now then be index linked annually. Staff to come back to the Board with their response.
Line managers, the situation should be addressed as soon as possible, to be on the next Board agenda.
Communication, the suggestion was to have everyone in the same office; all agreed that this is a good idea and should be implemented if possible.
A mini Board meeting then took place.
