Cllr Madeleine Johansson says 'We back the workers'

Cllr Madeleine Johansson in South Dublin County Council says the union is right to ballot its members working in the Council over damaging outsourcing dispute

Cllr Madeleine Johansson says 'We back the workers'

South Dublin County Council workers have seen more and more legal services outsourced. Fórsa, their union, wants to engage on this but SDCC management refuse.

Fórsa is now seeking to ballot its members for industrial action. People Before Profit backs the workers.

People Before Profit Cllr Madeleine Johansson spoke union reps on the Fórsa stall today and reminded them that they can count on People Before Profit members and representatives like Darragh Adelaide, Kay Keane, Jess Spear and herself for support.

She said 'Full support for FÓRSA balloting their members on industrial action because of outsourcing by the council.

It was good to get a leaflet from them in my pigeon hole and I'd encourage all members to vote for action.

It was also good to see a Fórsa stall in County Hall today.'

The ballot will be open from 4 February to 18 February. Read about the issue further in the flyer below or contact Fórsa directly.
