From The Socialist newspaper, 8 December 2010

Health workers need help to fight multinational

As we reported last week, workers employed by Medirest at hospitals in Buckinghamshire are balloting for strike action to achieve their rightful terms and conditions. These low-paid ancillary workers are working for a company, part of the Compass Group, who make £ millions in profits but won't pay their workers the agreed rates under the Agenda for Change agreement.

Please send messages of support and donations to their hardship fund to: Bucks Health Unison, Room 42, Tindal Centre, Bierton Road, Aylesbury, HP20 1HU, tel: 01296 565568. Please make cheques payable to Bucks Health Unison Hardship Fund.
