flamboyant Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Austerity didn't hit the top of the food change. http://councillors.herefordshire.gov.uk/documents/s50023075/Appendix%20A%20-%20Draft%20Pay%20Policy%20Statement%202015%20-%20EP%2014%20January%202015.pdf http://councillors.herefordshire.gov.uk/documents/s50023076/Appendix%20B%20-%20Top%20tier%20org%20chart%202014%20-%205%20Jan%202015%20EP%20140115.pdf https://www.herefordshire.gov.uk/media/7693610/pay_policy_statement_2014.pdf Quote
dippyhippy Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Doesn't everyone just love a flow chart?? Comparing the two in the second link.....are we losing one or two well known names? Helen Coombes....Peter Robinson??? Quote
flamboyant Posted January 23, 2015 Author Report Posted January 23, 2015 Not sure that's right Dippy, think they are just going to move to permenant posts with new titles! The Head of Customer Service and Communication had a nice 20k increase in salary! Wish I could write the new structures and give myself a wage rise! Quote
dippyhippy Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Oooooh!! A new fancy job title - how very exciting! I asked, because I could see no mention of these individuals in the second flow chart......perhaps the job descriptions, person specifications and salaries are still being negotiated??? ( I also clocked the huge increase......we're certainly paying the best, the question is - are we getting the best???) Quote
Aylestone Voice Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Natalia Silver has always been one of Geoff Hughes' favourites. Whenever her "old" job went he guaranteed she was found a new one. And they still cannot answer the phone!!!! Quote
flamboyant Posted January 23, 2015 Author Report Posted January 23, 2015 Then Geoff Hughes should be held responsible and asked to justify the huge increase in her salary when she's just made redundancies to front line services and increased the management structure along with their salaries! Quote
flamboyant Posted January 26, 2015 Author Report Posted January 26, 2015 http://www.herefordtimes.com/news/11748873.___Ludicrous____call_in_is_blasted_by_councillor/ It's about time Councillors started to realise they are making decisions without being in full possession of all the facts. The next thing they should be asking is why officers responsible for redesigning services can dismiss front line staff and then award themselves a 20k salary increase? There is absolutely no justification for salary increases of this nature particularly when a front line member of staff was dismissed to facilitate that increase. January 2014 The full salary of the Project Director now responsible for Customer Services and Libraries. The salary is HC13 - £50,708 to £54,956 – covering both posts of Head of Service for Community and Customer Services / Project Director. This is not a Director. January 2015 Head of community and customer services and project director broadband 70,682 Perhaps Geoff Hughes or Councillor Morgan can justify this decision since they would both have rubber stamped it!

bobby47 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 There's no end to it. We've simply no hope. They've no handbrake, they've no accountability and the recession was something that never affected them and their lifestyles. This is the way it is and there's nothing that we can do to stop it. It's truly depressing and commenting upon it has become an exercise in futility. They do not care what we think! Quote
