SECURITY guards at a university hospital have won three weeks of full sick pay in another victory for London’s outsourced workers during the Covid-19 crisis. 

The security team at St George’s University London (SGUL) have been fighting a months-long campaign against derisory statutory sick pay of £19.17 per day.

Their union, United Voices of the World (UVW), announced on Wednesday that contractor Bidvest Noonan has now awarded full sick pay for three weeks to the workers.
