Really pleased the Govt has taken this step to support long-term resilience for communities, ensuring that we meet the challenges of today & the future.
The Govt's decision to bring around 2000 workers back into the civil service will help to end unfairness at work, unacceptable levels of pay & poor conditions.
A huge well done to @pcsunion.bsky.social union & all who have been working towards this for a long time 👏

This year, I was honoured to write the foreword for 'Britain Called and We Answered', an extraordinary piece of archival history, preserving the memories & experiences of the Windrush generation for years to come. (2/2)
PCS has welcomed the decision to insource facilities management contracts managed by the Government Property Agency, bringing around 2,000 workers back into the civil service.
