We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
Y11 We know we’d be better off on the terms we are on . The so called 83% have been offered very small changes to their terms and conditions, we have been offered substantial changes (service & repair) to our contracts so I hope this doesn’t happen to you , your family or any of your friends in the future. And I find it abhorrent that you suggest we are dragging anyone down , it is the SLT that are dragging us down.
James you have been found out ??
The ones that have signed, have signed different contracts of which some have had a pay rise and will be working less hours.
I think they should council the dividend altogether that will pay for Chris O’Shea’s nice fat wage .
Just for you Wayl
Strike days for February are as follows 5,6,7,8. 12,13,14,15. 19,20,21,22. 26,27,28,29.
Oh and you can see your beloved CEO in front of the business select committee on Tuesday 2nd , I think it’s live on 504 at 10.30am to answer questions on his use of s188 or should I say misuse. Oh and he was called out for lying to an mp.
Hey Jed, we are striking first of all to remove the threat (gun to our heads) of fire and rehire .
So the changes the company wants to force onto us I’ll try to summarise.
Extra 156 hours work per year - no extra pay for this.
Overtime rates cut to time plus 1/3 maximum
Core hours increased to 6.00 am to 9.00 pm.
Weekend allowances removed altogether .
Amount of weekend caps removed - no cap to the amount required to work.
Sick pay cut
3 days holiday pa removed.
Redundancy payments cut if you are offered redundancy.
Pay freeze for at least 3 years
Ect ect ..........
We where on approximately £18.00 per hour , new hours equate to approximately £15.00 per hour so that’s one hell of a pay cut if you didn’t do overtime .
Some work overtime regularly and they could be over 10k a year worse off.
They also want to change the way they do our shifts from 6 month pattern to rolling 6 weeks , this will be a nightmare when booking holidays. I know some of you guys probably don’t think we even deserve holidays but hey we are human beings.
No way O’Shea , far far more on strike than they are reporting. It’s got tremendous support from everywhere. Of cause do to things happening in the USA it has been overshadowed.
This strike is hurting the company badly, believe me it will get worse if the one person that can stop it doesn’t act.
All he he has to do is call off the fire and rehire and the strike will end . Failing that it will continue and right now the workers are in the mood to fight for their rights.
