Workers would receive 4% pay rise this year, followed by 2.5% in 2025-26
Unions are being asked to ballot their members on a new pay deal for public sector workers.
The Public Services Commission, which is the employer of more than half of government's workforce, has put forward a new two-year offer after a three-year proposal was rejected.
In a meeting last week, unions expressed concerns that the three-year agreement could mean a below inflation increase in the third year.
The PSC is now offering a four percent increase for the current financial year, with 2.5 percent next year.
It's also proposing changes to annual leave that would see employees who accrue ten years of service receive 30 days per year instead of 28.
The commission has advised Prospect and Unite the Union of the offer, and says it would like the unions to progress to ballot.
