Rf Brookes Industrial Action

EDM number 213 in 2012-13, proposed by John McDonnell on 18/06/2012.
Categorised under the topic of Industrial relations.

That this House congratulates the members of the Bakers, Food and Allied Workers Union for the industrial action they are currently being obliged to take at the pizza and pie factory, RF Brookes in Leicestershire, to defend their contractural redundancy terms; notes with concern the decision of the new owner, 2 Sisters Food Group, to more then halve the redundancy pay to which staff are entitled without any negotiation, consultation or agreement; recognises that these changes could cost workers faced with redundancy up to 10,000 each; and calls on the multi-millionaire Chief Executive Ranjit Singh to honour the company's previous undertakings and maintain the former level of redundancy pay of two and a half weeks' money for each year of service, up to a maximum of a year's salary.

This motion has been signed by a total of 27 MPs.
