Overtime and TOIL Update

Changes to Working Patterns - Successful Outcome to the Joint TU Dispute

As part of the new contract the council moved from nine to two working patterns and employees should have been assimilated onto the pattern that most closely reflected the working pattern they were on prior to 1 April 2017. However, many members contacted us about their working patterns being changed and UNISON together with Unite and GMB objected to these changed and lodged a dispute.  Please see newletter below for full details.

Notts Pride

Nottinghamshire Pride took place on Satirday 29th July. 6000 people attended the march, including group from the UNISON LGBT regional Self Organised Group. The stall was staffed with volunteers from the Nottingham City Branch SOG and straight allies. It was a well attended event where we spoke with so many people with a variety of issues. Many people didn't know what at TU was, or didn't know if they were in one. Lots of people were worried about how Brexit would affect them personally and one lovely man who was in his 60's who has never felt comfortable enough to be out in the work place. Lots of
recruitment took place including three into the Branch SOG.
