SUCCESS STORIES

We donÂ’t just listen to membersÂ’ views; we do something about them. Prospect has negotiated and won a number of positive improvements.

National Trust pay

Many staff use to be paid the National Minimum Wage. We've made low pay a priority, and all staff now earn at least 10% above this.

We've recently negotiated a system that will enable staff to move up their payscales. In the past, many people spent years or decades near the bottom of their scales. We want everyone to get to target pay within five years in their grade.

Health and safety

Prospect NT safety leaflet A health and safety committee structure has been set up, with a network of trained union health and safety reps. They have already dealt with a number of key issues such as stress and harassment. Prospect can advise you about your basic health and safety rights at the Trust - download our health and safety leaflet.

Helping individuals

We have successfully resolved hundreds of individual cases, including disciplinary/grievance procedures, pay complaints, reorganisations and job changes.
