Until you have SMR/HER statutory status your jobs are at risk! Whilst
Archaeology generally pays such low wages across the UK then LG jobs will be
down graded in a penny pinching format.....
When a member of ALGAO I suggested that this would happen....all on deaf
ears!

Speaking with my BAJR head on, I am sadly aware of a general attempt by Local
Govt as a whole (surely they can't come up with the idea simultaneously by
coincidence) that Posts in Archives, Museums, Archaeology and Heritage
related posts should all either move down a notch (or two)
and/or are no longer required for the smooth running of goverment? A
gentle drip drip erosion of both service and rpersonel will in the end
require either robust and concerted defence OR better start training for the
construction industry.
Does ALGAO have a stance on this? should they be approached to find
whether they do? and if yes... what is it? and if no... why not?
Archaeology at LGA level is underpinned by the HER - and HLC for that
matter ... are we looking at a development/construction hungry govt.
looking to remove any potential bocks to the construction of houses. or am
I paranoid?
