Prime Minister Gaston Browne says public servants to receive salary increases
Beyond the additional back pay due this month, public servants can expect higher salaries through the national reclassification exercise, which is now being accelerated.
Prime Minister Browne said his administration is determined to modernise the public sector and prevent future wage arrears.
“Civil servants will also benefit from a further upgrade in pay, as a result of the reclassification that will be completed by July 2026.”
He noted that one of the biggest problems over the years has been outdated negotiations and slow-moving agreements.
To correct this, the wage-negotiation process is being overhauled.
“We are restructuring the entire wage-negotiation process… so that new salary increases take effect by July 2026. No drift, no excuses, a modern public service deserves modern collective bargaining.”
Nobody says no to money. Thank you Gassy
We need that increase PM we commend you.
This was the best budget the PM ever presented. It means he will not have another budget before elections, It means elections is next year. People understand how it go
I still don’t want understand this reclassification thing. Anyway once I get my pay increase
If the reclassification goes ahead as planned, many workers could see real changes by mid-2026.
Public servants have waited years for proper pay adjustments, so July 2026 will feel both close and far depending on how quickly details are rolled out.
