Outsourced workers at CBRE Group in Britain have accepted an above-inflation pay deal

June 2 2026

Following discussions between Communication Workers Union (CWU) representatives and the employer, CWU members will receive a 3.4% pay increase for workers, with a standby payment increased to £177 – a 3.5% pay lift.

The employees, who work on the BT estate as technicians, air conditioning engineers and ground maintenance, ratified the deal by 75% to 25% in a vote.

Workers will also receive an extra day in annual leave for 2026, and CBRE have committed to working with the union on salary benchmarking, so that all salaries and ranges for each role receive annual review.

CBRE believe that the increases, which will be backdated to April 1^st, will be included in the June payroll.

CWU National Officer Tracey Fussey said:  “I would like to give my thanks to every CWU member who has participated in voting to ensure this outcome.”
