Safe & Equal

A campaign for full isolation and sick pay and effective PPE for all workers, regardless of employment status or contract.

[Safe & Equal @C19SafeAndEqual]

All workers, regardless of contractual status, need full sickness and isolation pay. If workers can’t afford to isolate, the virus will continue to spread. If you agree, share our new video. #Covid19UK #Pandemic #SickPay

Lack of adequate sick pay is an injustice, and a threat to public health. Support the @UVWunion strikers at @GreatOrmondSt and all workers taking action to win full occupational sick pay! #GOSHStrike

[RMT Bakerloo branch @bakerloormt]

Delighted that @RMTunion SGM passed a motion from our branch, held over from our curtailed 2020 AGM, resolving to organise action to demand full sick pay for all our members. SSP is not enough to live on! Solidarity with @RMTCleanersSE striking on 23 Feb to win full sick pay.

“Abolish all anti-trade union laws to give workers more power to negotiate better pay and conditions.”

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Great to hear a @UKLabour MP speaking out for this policy, which has been democratically endorsed by successive Labour conferences and by the @The_TUC.

[IWGB Universities of London @IWGBUoL]

On 21 December, 135 UCL security guards sent a letter to the @ucl Council in complaint over the continued outsourcing of services and its consequences on the livelihood of hundreds of workers. To date, they haven’t had a response. These are some of the problems we are facing🧵

[Safe & Equal @C19SafeAndEqual]

[Safe & Equal @C19SafeAndEqual]

This is an obscenity that undermines all other efforts to confront the pandemic. Full sick pay at living wage levels now!

[George Eaton @georgeeaton]

Two years after the pandemic began, UK sick pay remains among the lowest in Europe (just £96.35) – today's @NewStatesman Chart of the Day. https://t.co/D74P2fB1iY

[Safe & Equal @C19SafeAndEqual]

Spot on. Without adequate social provision (not only full sick pay but quarantine accommodation for those who need it), measures to suppress new variants and spikes in infection rates will always be less effective.

Statutory Sick Pay is not enough to live on. Full sick pay for all, now!

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

This summer we took to the streets to ask people a simple question:

How much do you earn?

[RMT Bakerloo branch @bakerloormt]

Reps for station staff at Tube stations serving Royal Parks, including Regent’s Park on our line, have signed this statement in solidarity with park cleaners and attendants in @UVWunion and @pcs_union, currently on strike. @RMTLondon is with you, comrades! https://t.co/Gw4B2PaMb5
