There are fears that care home residents could be impacted by strikes 😟
A GLASGOW MSP has written to the owners of three crisis-hit city care homes raising serious concerns over staff and residents' welfare.
We told on Friday how disillusioned staff claimed morale had been destroyed by the ongoing row, with workers balloting last week over possible strike action. GMB bosses also say that the firm is trying to derecognise them as employees' official representatives. In a strongly worded letter - which has been shared with the Glasgow Times - Mr Doris urged the firm to 'reconsider its approach' and work with staff and the trade union instead of being drawn into a conflict.
"The union is also concerned about the refusal to implement TUPE protections following the purchase of the care homes from Four Season and I would ask that management urgently meet with GMB Scotland and open up meaningful dialogue to resolve these issues." "I know that staff would be reluctant to take such a step, but from what I have been told, they may have been left with very limited alternative options."The MSP told the Glasgow Times that he is 'anticipating and looking forward to' receiving a response to his letter from care home bosses.
