Pay rises for Royal staff

Pay rises for Royal staff

Staff at Royal & Sun Alliance, the UK's largest insurer, are set to secure pay rises of up to 10 per cent. Employees are to be balloted on the remuneration package, which includes more holidays and a performance- related pay system, but trade unions have recommended that staff accept the proposals. The ballot result is due on 23 December. The proposals will ensure that "all staff will get some sort of pay rise", according to Bifu, the banking union.
