We have reached stage 3 in the 2023 pay talks with Fujitsu. Despite Fujitsu being hugely profitable UK management still insist the maximum they can afford to pay is 3% despite double digit inflation in 2022 / 23 and multi-year contracts with indexation clauses all significantly increasing in value and profitability (e.g. HMRC.)
The PCS after industrial action have accepted a 5% plus pay offer with an extra days holiday (amounting to an extra 0.4%.) This demonstrates Fujitsu in the UK can afford more if it so chooses.
We will post a lot more about this shortly.
