We act as the Secretariat for the Employers' Side of the Police Staff Council (PSC). This was established to provide voluntary collective bargaining machinery for police staff in England and Wales.
The PSC covers approximately 73,348 staff as of September 2023, in 37 forces in England and Wales.
Information is communicated by both employer and joint circulars. Joint circulars are issued by the PSC. Employer circulars are issued by the Employers' Side.
The national agreements of the PSC are only binding if PCCs and Chief Constables agree to incorporate them within the contracts of employment of their employees.
As a Secretariat we are only able to provide advice, guidance and support to police forces (employers) in England and Wales.
