Industrial action: Pensions in the fire service

February 16, 2015
Download Circular (pdf)
Circular ref
2015HOC0133MW

 

Dear Brother/Sister

Firefighter members in England have previously been informed of action short of strike which they have been called upon to undertake.  This action short of strike shall continue until 07:00 hrs on 25 February 2015.

As the person authorised to make the call for industrial action I now confirm that discontinuous industrial action will commence and terminate at the times and on the dates specified below:

Commencing 25 February 2015 from 07:00 hrs until 26 February 2015 at 07:00 hrs, strike action (firefighters in England).

Commencing 26 February 2015 from 07:00 hrs until further notice, industrial action short of a strike (firefighters in England).

Details of action short of a strike to be taken from 26 February 2015 at 07:00 hrs will be circulated prior to the appropriate time by way of a further circular and published on the FBU website www.fbu.org.uk.


  1. Control member includes those who have been transferred from control duties but remain eligible for the same pension schemes as Control members.


  2.  


Please ensure all members are made aware of this circular and continue to discuss options for this and any future industrial action which may be necessary.

Best wishes.

Yours fraternally

Matt Wrack
General Secretary
