Pay Settlement Agreement 2022/2023
Manx Care has agreed (through joint staff side unions representing the different staff groups) the following pay settlement for the 2022/2023 financial year.
The total consolidated award for 22/23 amounts to 6% plus a £1,500 increase in each pay point. The actual percentage increase differs for each pay grade, with the greatest increases for lower grades. But on average, this means a combined 8.75% pay increase for 22/23.
