How to vote
Members are able to cast their ballot in 1 of 3 different
ways:
Post - Use the envelope in your ballot pack
Online - www.votebyinternet.com/pcs2014
Phone - 0800
197 4625 (free).
To cast a vote electronically members need a security
code, which is on the reverse of the ballot paper. It comes in 2 parts, and
both parts are needed.
Members do not need their membership number or NI number
to cast their vote, just the security code. However they will need either or of
these to request a replacement paper.

Pay squeeze calculator
shows scale of losses
We have launched a new pay squeeze calculator which shows
members what their level of pay would be if it had kept pace with inflation.
The calculator (click here)
shows the effect of the government's pay and pension policies on the value of
civil servants' salaries.
Branches have already started running pay surgeries using
the calculator and members have been shocked by what they've learnt.
One rep Rachel said: "I did the calculation and was
shocked to find out that I have lost abour £6,000 over the last 4 years."
We would like reps and members to send their calculations
