Pensions
Unite has been very successful in raising awareness
about the high number of companies who are seeking to close their
final salary pension
schemes.
The issue of pensions is high on the news agenda and it is now
proving difficult for many employers to downgrade workers' pension
benefits without attracting adverse publicity.
Behind the scenes, Unite is seeking to
minimise the damage to workers' pension entitlements in cases where
employers are determined to replace final salary schemes with
inferior arrangements.
