6 days until national strike!

10 July 2008, 8:19pm

Only limited exemptions granted for the all out strike on the 16th and 17th.

Westminster UNISON's strike committee has been meeting daily and are busy making preparations for a massive strike next Wednesday and Thursday.

If industrial action is to be successful it must be hard-hitting and solid. However, it is not our intention to put vulnerable members of the public at risk. Therefore, the following limited exemptions have been granted which are as follows:

  • Employees currently in their last year of service who are members of the LGPS
  • Pregnant women who have notified their employer of the expected birth date
  • People whose state benefits may be adversely affected
  • Registrars - DISPENSATION GRANTED FOR ONLY A MINIMUM WORKFORCE - THOSE REGISTRARS WHO WILL BE REGISTERING BIRTHS, DEATHS AND PRE-BOOKED MARRIAGES. DISPENSATION IS NOT GRANTED FOR ANY OTHER REGISTRARS
  • Emergency Response Officers: DISPENSATION GRANTED

WORKING FROM HOME IS NOT STRIKE ACTION!
