Public sector organisations across Greater Manchester have signed up to a Continuous Service Commitment. This means that they will recognise your continuous or ‘unbroken’ service in any Greater Manchester local authority or NHS organisation, Transport for Greater Manchester, Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service or Greater Manchester Combined Authority; giving you access to service-related benefits. This is part of a move towards greater partnership working across the public sector in Greater Manchester.

The landmark commitment has been achieved as a result of partnership working between Greater Manchester’s public sector employers and our trade union partners. It is an example of how we are using the opportunities of devolution to find better ways to recruit and retain high quality staff in our transforming public services. 

The Commitment came into effect on 1st April 2018, and will apply to all staff that move between any of the supporting organisations from this date.

For more information, please contact your employer or prospective employer directly.
