NLA, Union reach consensus on salary issues after high-level talks

Fair Wages Commission backs 12% increase proposal as parties commit to resolving tax-related gaps and restoring industrial harmony.

The National Lottery Authority (NLA) has reached an agreement with the Financial, Business and Services Employees Union (FBSEU) to resolve outstanding salary issues and income tax concerns. The deal was reached after a meeting involving key figures from the NLA, including the Board and Management, and union leaders, as well as officials from the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC).

The NLA and the union have agreed on a modified proposal from the FWSC, opting for a 12% salary increase instead of the initial 8% request by the union. In addition, the three parties will collaborate to address discrepancies in income tax computations. The NLA Board and Management have pledged to maintain industrial harmony while the issues are resolved, urging staff to remain calm and continue their work.
