RMT slams Unipart over attack on workers' right to strike
TRANSPORT union RMT accused Unipart Rail today of issuing baseless threats to sack employees for taking part in lawful strike action.
It comes after the manufacturer decided to derecognise the rail union at its Crewe site, prompting workers to vote overwhelmingly for industrial action.
RMT says that despite the lawful vote, the firm has issued threats that those standing on the picket line during Thursday’s planned strike could face the sack.
