Unite members at One Housing Group, which include people based in this borough, are taking industrial action next week against pay cuts of up to £8000 per year.
Following a three year pay freeze, support workers there are being dismissed and re-engaged on much worse contracts meaning pay cuts of up to £8,000 each. The average cut is £2,000. At the same time the organisation is making record surpluses, which rose by 200% in the supported housing wing alone last year and the CEO, Mick Sweeney, took a £31,000 pay rise.
There will be six separate picket lines so we are looking for as much support as possible…people on picket lines, please send messages of support and donations to the hardship fund Unite branch 1/1111 Account no: 20040639 Sort code 08-60-01
Thanks in advance for any and all support you may be able to offer.
