Interserve beats blacklist charge by scaffolders Ι Construction Enquirer

Interserve Industrial Services has beaten allegations of blacklisting after an employment appeal tribunal ruled that a union had tried to “bully” the contractor.

The case centred on three scaffolders who were denied employment by Interserve on a Murco oil refinery shut-down job.

The trio claimed they were denied work because of their trade union activities and that their names appeared on a blacklist.

Those claims were thrown-out at a hearing earlier this year. And the tribunal rejected an appeal by the men last week.

The tribunal heard that a Unite official had asked for the trio to be taken on as shop stewards.

But the Interserve manager concerned regarded the move as a form of bullying and refused to be dictated to by the union about who the firm should employ.
 
interSLAVE are a shower of ***** , with the majority of their men , YES men , who work for pennies
 
your quite correct jiggaman. But these big firms can be ruthless too. i seen many a good lad on dole for standing up for what is right and they all look after there mates and there families witch aint right each man deserves a chance to earn. There is no body that can say these firms are whiter than white there going backwards not forwards.
 
Not a good corny to work for though, I have mates who work for them and as they say; needs must!
 
very true but even then its still fruststrating aint it there using the economy to benefit there cause and the great british goverment is backing them all the way. you cant even take a firm to a tribunial now unless you worked for them for two years. where the fairness in that...
 
I Worked For GKN Mills When I Started, And Have Watched The Steady Decline Of A Great Firm, There Are Far To Many Creeps And Yes Men On There Now For My Liking, Many A Good Scaffolder Was Treated Terribly By Them In Favour Of There Mates And Yes Men. When I Worked There On Price Work If Your Face Fitted You Made Money If It Didnt You Were Treated Like *****. I Could Really Write A Book About There Shenanigins.

Only good thing about mills was their doubles a very clever person designed those years ahead of his time,he must have foreseen all the crap with Aberdeens and check fittings and whatever. I was trained to use them properLy at bircham by a bloke who loved em and for things like birdcages and shores there was no better fitting in my book.you think about using them now with the wrench with the nut to the side. It would do away with being too close to the wall to get the wrench on... If I had to pick between them and readylok it would be a very close call...

F.uck I'm bored...
 
Totally Agree With You About The Fitting, No Problem There. Its The Way The Company Is Run I Have A Problem With, Every Single Member Of Interserves Management Team Seems To Think They Can Treat Men Like Crap, And Most Of Interserves Scaffolders Let Them Do It, I Cant For The Life Of Me Work Like That, I Wasnt Brought Up To Treat People Like That And I Wasnt Brought Up To Let People (So Called Educated Management) Treat Me Like That Without There Being Something Said Or Done, Sorry Boys Its How I Am.
 
That firm have always been bad to the core.they get the dregs of all the work that they only get because they have bought it and the knock on effect is that you ( the lads) get treated like slaves and paid peanuts.anyone who has ever worked for that crowd will know that it has never been any different. Unless you were one of the in crowd you only ever went there if there was nothing else about. We just used to turn up toss it off and clear off to the pub every day. You get what you pay for...
