Sisters and Brothers,
Thank you for the support you have demonstrated to the PSAC members who work at the Pay centres and thank you for having voiced your concerns about Phoenix. You sent letters to your local MPs, commented on social media and participated in various union events. We all know the problem is with the pay system itself and not the workers.
