UNISON ISSUES COVID-19 GUIDANCE FOR BLACK MEMBERS here

HSE’s PPE Unit has become concerned about the prevalence of KN95 masks in the supply chain that may not provide the protection people expect or require.  The safety alert can be found at . https://www.hse.gov.uk/safetybulletins/use-of-face-masks-designated-kn95.htm?

 

Tower Hamlets UNISON are meeting on Monday 15 June to enact the strike action they suspended as they wanted to support their community through the Covid 19 crisis. Although the labour Council were shamed into suspending the implementation of detrimental “Tower Rewards” contracts that the workforce have overwhelmingly rejected, they are still threatening to impose them on 6th July.  

Although talks at ACAS have been scheduled the requirement for a 14 day notice period under Tory anti-union laws leave the branch  with no option other than to set strike days now.

It cannot be right that workers who have been recognised as essential throughout this crisis are rewarded by having worse conditions imposed, still less that the Council seeks to use the crisis to impose them at a time they think it will be harder for unions to take effective action.

UNISON Assistant General Secretary Roger McKenzie will also address the meeting on Black Lives Matter.

Our branch agreed to send a letter expressing our solidarity with our sisters and brothers in Tower hamlets and should they need it, financial support to ensure the success of their actions
