MUSICAL PROTEST IN SUPPORT OF SACKED CLEANERS! 1PM on FRIDAY 3 APRIL at

Dear all,

It would be grand if people could send solidarity emails to clean@mitie.co.uk and camailto:castlesea@willis.com on Friday, as explained in the callout below, demanding that the cleaners at the Willis Building are reinstated. Even better if you happen to be off on Friday and can attend
the demo in person!

Cheers,

Matt Sellwood

MUSICAL PROTEST IN SUPPORT OF SACKED CLEANERS!

5 Unite union cleaners including the shop steward have been sacked from the Willis building by the contractor Mitie for organising for better conditions.

1PM on FRIDAY 3 APRIL at
THE WILLIS BUILDING, 51 LIME STREET EC3M 7DQ

williscleaners4justice@live.co.uk

"We are 4 women and one man dismissed from your building because we were trying to get better conditions for all the MITIE Cleaning and Support Services workers. After we asked for an increase of wages they changed the working shifts from 7 to 11 pm to work overnight 10 to 6 am: a clear move to attack and stop us claiming our rights. Then they sent us the P45 dismissing us on grounds of redundancy. Following our letter dated 26th January we did not get any alternative or answer, so we have decided to start a series of demon¬strations outside Willis's building until we get our jobs back. We are appealing to your common sense – we have families to support and children to feed. We are completely sure about the unfairness of the company
decision..."

If you cannot go then please email clean@mitie.co.uk and castlesea@willis.com on Friday demanding that the cleaners at the Willis
Building are reinstated.
