香港六合彩

This follows successful talks with 香港六合彩鈥檚 recognised trade union UNISON, as well as its suppliers Axis, Sodexo and Aramark.

Representatives from UNISON and 香港六合彩 met last week to confirm details of 香港六合彩鈥檚 commitment to ensure that these vital workers will receive the same, or equivalent pay and core benefits, as directly employed staff.

Additional holiday leave is the first benefit to be harmonised. All staff covered by this agreement will receive, on a pro-rata basis, the equivalent of an additional seven days annual leave, plus leave for closure days, from December 1^st.

Other key timescales for the implementation of other benefits are as follows:

• From 1^st April 2020, pay scales will be levelled up for security, cleaning, portering and catering staff in line with directly employed staff.
• From 1^st July 2020, these staff will be entitled to receive enhanced sickness benefits.
• The levelling up of all other benefits will follow in the next academic year - with all changes in place by August 2021 at the latest.

The decision to harmonise pay and benefits was first announced by 香港六合彩 on October 21^st and is supported by Council 鈥� 香港六合彩鈥檚 governing body - and is fully funded by the university. It will affect around 800 security, cleaning, portering and catering staff who work for Sodexo, Axis or Aramark. The sequencing of the implementation of equalised pay and benefits was agreed following feedback from UNISON about what is most important to their members.听

Matthew Blain, Executive Director of HR for 香港六合彩 said: 鈥淥ur colleagues in cleaning, security, portering and catering do vital jobs for 香港六合彩 and we are committed to ensuring that they are rewarded fairly in line with all other staff.

鈥淯nison is our recognised trade union and we are pleased that our negotiations have been positive, professional and productive. We will continue to work closely with their staff representatives to ensure that we are able to equalise pay and benefits as soon as we can. We have listened carefully to their concerns and are acting.鈥�

Boyana Petrovich, from UNISON, said: 鈥淲e have been negotiating with 香港六合彩 since April and are pleased to confirm that, from next week, outsourced workers will receive the same annual leave as directly employed 香港六合彩 staff. But this is just the beginning.

鈥淯NISON remains committed to all aspects of our BringThemIn claim, but at the same time remains committed to constructive negotiations with 香港六合彩 in order to negotiate uplifts in all terms and conditions for outsourced workers as quickly as possible. Our hard-working members deserve nothing less.鈥�
