Carlisle group

Issue No. 1872


The workers, members of the RMT union employed by the Carlisle Group, are already paid miserably-with some on just £4.39 an hour.

Bosses want to make things even worse by offering a 2 percent rise. With inflation that is effectively a pay cut.

RMT assistant general secretary Pat Sikorski says, 'Carlisle Group's pay rates are an absolute disgrace.

'Carlisle Group can afford to pay decent rates. They have contracts worth £110 million and they can afford to pay their directors six figure salaries.' The strike ballot closes on 15 October.
