A total of 62% of GMB members balloted accepted the deal.
Members of the GMB union have voted to accept a pay deal for workers in non-teaching roles in schools.
Keir Greenway, GMB Scotland senior organiser in public services, said 62% of members working in councils supported the deal. “It is not a perfect offer but is a good one and it was right our members, who were ready to strike in support of fair pay, were given the chance to vote on it. He said: “That it took the threat of strike action for Cosla to make an offer which could and should have been on the table months ago is frustrating and regrettable.“Instead of getting a fair pay offer and the money in their banks, our members have been asked to endure months of inaction, needless delay, and all the melodrama of deadlines and last-minute offers.
