Camden UNISON stewards in NSL were recognised by Greater London Region of UNISON this year when they were presented with the Eric Roberts annual organising award at the Regional Council AGM.
Over the last decade, members recruited, won union recognition and elected stewards in each base, and they have now won three pay disputes. In the most recent dispute last year, members took 33 days of strike action, but they are now amongst the highest paid traffic wardens on a private contract. They have shown that you can still fightback and win on a private contract.
The award was given to them in recognition of all the hard work and determination they have shown in winning their dispute last year. It was presented to one of the stewards by UNISON President Josie Bird, and although given in the name of the stewards, it’s for every one of our members working at NSL who stood firm and won!
