Public sector pay rises have been much in the news recently. But how do you approach the sometimes tricky subject of negotiating pay rises (or the lack of them) in your business? In the next edition of in-Cumbria we are asking the county’s businesses for advice. How do you manage your colleagues’ expectations? How do you assess how much a pay rise should be? What soft skills do you need to use if a pay rise just isn’t possible? If you have a point of view and would like to be featured in the magazine then please comment below or send us a DM. Thank you so much! Giles Brown
