Strike Action Meeting Friday 24th March

Meeting in room uh230 between 12.30 - 1.3 0pm

Dear Colleagues

As previously advised, the industrial action is going ahead on the 28 March - I trust we can count on all our colleagues to support this strike - this isn't about something that only effects some people, it effects all of us.

We need to have a good turnout on the picket lines and we would like a strong presence at each gate throughout the day, so I'm hoping that you will make every effort to support us at some point throughout the day.

It is important that this is co-ordinated properly so we know what is happening throughout the day. Could I ask you please to attend the meeting on Friday 24th March in room uh230 between 12.30 - 1.3 0pm to be able to arrange rotas so people are not out in the cold too long (as we know its always freezing cold and raining for picketing).

The Branch will be willing to pay any expenses you incur on the day, e.g. if you incur an additional day's expense by public transport, petrol mileage, food/beverages to sustain you on the picket line.




This is a joint union action and members of the GMB and Unison and the T&G will also be on strike on the 28 March.

I look forward to seeing you.
