Reminder: industrial rights poll closes tomorrow

20 June 2024

Nottinghamshire Police Federation members are being reminded that the industrial rights poll closes tomorrow (Friday 21 June).

The poll, which was launched on Monday (3 June) will determine whether members would like the Police Federation of England and Wales (PFEW) to pursue industrial rights for police officers.

The link to the poll has been emailed out to all members, including Special Constables, all of which are being urged to take part. The email is titled ‘PFEW Industrial Rights Poll’ and is sent from elections@mi-voice.com - an independent and secure balloting provider. Many members have found the email in their spam/junk folders, so please ensure you check there.

Negotiation

The poll will determine whether Federation members would like PFEW to seek, in law, the re-establishment of a mechanism of collective bargaining and direct negotiation with the Government when it comes to determining police pay.

Should the majority vote in favour, then PFEW will commence negotiations with the new Government, at the earliest opportunity. 

The poll will close tomorrow, on Friday 21 June at 21.59.

Along with the poll link, members should have received an FAQ document. If you have not received the poll link or the FAQ document, please contact the Federation office as soon as possible.
