Total must get serious about seeking a solution to the unofficial
dispute at Lindsey says Unite
21 June 2009
Assistant general secretary, Les Bayliss said: "Total refused to
meet with ACAS and the unions last Friday even though unofficial
action was spreading across the country.
"On Monday Unite will be available to sit down with the
employers to assist with negotiations. Its time for Total to get
serious about seeking a resolution to the problems at Lindsey.
Their behaviour so far has only served to heighten the
unofficial dispute."
"The country is at the height of a recession, there is a great deal
of uncertainty in the construction industry. Instead of showing
sensitivity and good management, employers are treating
construction workers as disposable commodities."
