Trade unions and employers’ organisation Graphic Enterprise Scotland have closed a new collective agreement, containing a 2% wage increase. The collective agreement is the first since 2008 and both parties have committed to strengthening collective bargaining in the sector. The agreement will benefit over 700 workers and covers negotiations for wages, overtime premium, shift premium, holidays, and all other aspects of work.
