Police officer pay rise comes in Officers across England and Wales received a 1 per cent “cost of living” pay rise on September 1 – but how their incremental increases will look in the future is still to be decided. At a Police Negotiating Board meeting in April, an Official Side offer to increase officers’ pay in September 2013 was accepted by the Staff Side. However, following another PNB meeting in July – and to the confusion of many rank and file officers – how increments will change from 2014 is still to be negotiated. As a result, those on the front line of policing are yet to be told what they will be earning next year. The “cost of living” rise which came in at the beginning of September is less than half of that seen for officers in the three years preceding the three year pay freeze which began in 2011. In 2008, a deal was struck with the then Labour Government that saw an increase in officers’ pay of 2.65 per cent for 2008/09, 2.6 per cent for 2009/10 and 2.55 per cent for 2010/11.
