We're on strike TOMORROW, Tues 10th Nov, and on the 13th, 16th, 18th and 23rd Nov in our continuing dispute over pay and conditions.
It has been OVER 3 YEARS since we have had any kind of pay increase.
Picket lines will be outside Velocity House on Solly Street, S1 4DE /1
Branch Sec @SamMorecroft explains why we are on strike today after over 2 years without a pay rise, demanding fair pay and improvements to T's and C's such as ending zero hour contracts.
We're also balloting in response to a further 12 staff being put at risk of redundancy.
