Trade union members have responded overwhelmingly and voted to support the TUC Day of Action on November 30. Across all jobs and grades public sector workers will take strike action to defend their pensions.
Unions not affiliated to the TUC, for example the Royal College of Nursing, are gearing up for a ballot early next year and will support lunch time events across the UK.
As unions ballot members over the coming weeks and prepare for the first TUC Day of Action on 30 November, it will be possible for scheme members to see for themselves what is at stake.
