First set of strike dates confirmed
UNISON have this morning served notice on 8 local authorities of strike dates for waste and recycling members. These dates align with the dates also notified to authorities this morning by the GMB. It is unfortunate that they do not align with the dates Unite have already notified but that was not for the want of trying to achieve an agreed approach.
Please see press release on link below
Strike dates for schools/early years will be confirmed in due course.
We are holding an online general meeting on Thursday 18th August at 6p.m and all members are required to attend. Please see the following brief agenda below for the meeting. If members able to attend please contact the branch on the following e-mail address thomsonl34s@stirling.gov.uk and a link will be forwarded to you prior to the meeting.
Agenda
- Pay update
- Motion to transfer monies to IA account
The UNISON Scotland LG leads will be meeting branches with a strike mandate on Monday to discuss preparation for action.
We are also working on supporting materials/advice to members taking action and resources for those who are not so they can demonstrate their support for those Workers taking action on their behalf.
Further information on all of that will follow asap – you will appreciate that things are moving at pace at the moment but we will, as always we will communicate any developments as soon as we have more detail.
