Five-day-strike: Report from Manchester Fujitsu strike meeting
Report from January 17th Fujitsu strike meeting in Manchester.
A packed meeting of Amicus members this afternoon decided:
1. To elect Dean Burn as a new Rep.
2. That we should continue to be available for dispute talks at any time, but that unlike in November, we should not suspend the action unless there was tangible evidence of good prospects of success, to avoid further time-wasting.
Manchester Fujitsu workers on strike
Workers at a Fujitsu site in Manchester were on strike Monday, and have a further two-day strike planned to begin on Wednesday.
The action, organised by the Amicus union, is in response to several grievances - including unpaid overtime, pay rise delays and erosion of redunancy rights. The Fujitsu site at Central Park provides call centre and IT services to the public sector, workers at another site at West Gorton also participated in the action.
