National March and Rally against Minimum Service Levels Act

Main Content

The Strikes (Minimum Service Levels) Act stipulates that when workers in certain sectors lawfully vote to strike, they could be forced to attend work – and sacked if they don’t comply. This undemocratic new law could curtail the right to strike for 1 in 5 workers. This is the last thing our crumbling public services or our dedicated frontline workers need – these draconian laws will poison industrial relations and drag out disputes. Ministers are punishing paramedics and rail staff for daring to stand up for decent pay and better services.

The TUC is organising a National March and Rally in Cheltenham this Saturday, marking the 40th anniversary of the removal of the right to be a union member from employees at GCHQ which is based there.
