Clean Start rally & march, 14 May

11 May 2009 / Comments Off / in News/by TEU

The Service and Food Workers Union (SFWU) ‘Clean Start’ members are holding a rally in Auckland this Thursday (14 May) to mark the launch of bargaining for their MECA for Commerical cleaners nationwide.  Meet at Aotea Square at 1200 (Midday). March down Queen Street for rally at Britomart.

Auckland TEU members are encouraged to come along and support our cleaners who are fighting for:

  • Better pay
  • Better hours
  • Job security
  • More training
  • Respect at work

SFWU has already won $14.62 an hour for hospital and directly employed school cleaners and now want to win the same pay for our commercial cleaners.

For more details contact:

Rita or Fala on 09 375 2680

  • Fala: 027 204 6332

"We are the people who clean your offices, your schools and your communities. Help us clean up our industry. Help us show the big building owners, the Government and the cleaning companies that we're worth more!"
