The wrong target - Public sector pay cuts in EU states

A study by LRD looking at cuts in public sector pay across the European Union (EU) shows that the impact of the cuts has been very substantial.

The report, which was carried out on behalf of the European Federation of Public Service Unions (EPSU) examines public sector pay cuts in eight EU states, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania and Spain.  http://www.lrd.org.uk/issue.php?pagid=45&issueid=1431
