London, UK. 22nd June 2017. Striking UoL Security Workers and IWGB supporters march from their picket at Senate House to join the SOAS Justice for Workers rally outside the occupation of the SOAS directorate. Together they briefly occupied the doorway area of the building. The occupation began after catering staff heard from employer EliorUK that the main building refectory was to close and workers there would be made redundant. SOASJ4W demand there should be no cuts, no closures and no redundancies and that all workers at SOAS should have fair contracts offering equal sick pay, holiday pay
London, UK. 22nd June 2017. Striking UoL Security Workers and IWGB supporters march from their picket at Senate House to join the SOAS Justice for Workers rally outside the occupation of the SOAS directorate. Together they briefly occupied the doorway area of the building. The occupation began after catering staff heard from employer EliorUK that the main building refectory was to close and workers there would be made redundant. SOASJ4W demand there should be no cuts, no closures and no redundancies and that all workers at SOAS should have fair contracts offering equal sick pay, holiday pay, with zero-hours contracts being replaced and outsourced workers brought in-house. They want proper consultation with staff and students over the refectory and catering services and for the agreement with Unison for catering staff pay to be implemented - some are now owed up to £4000 in unpaid wages. They call for a public apology by management to the workers involved and an undertaking there will be no legal or disciplinary action against students taking part in the occupation.
