Press Release: 20 November 2015 SIPTU and TEEU local authority members working under the management of Irish Water have today (Friday, 20th November) overwhelmingly voted for industrial action to prevent the privatisation of the public water service. Last month, Irish Water said that it intended reduce the local authority workforce in the company by up to 1500 by 2021. The unilateral announcement was in breach of the Service Level Agreement reached with trade union representatives in 2013 which obliged the company to consult with them in relation to any proposed changes in staffing numbers In ballots counted this morning, 91% of SIPTU and 84% of TEEU local authority members working under the management of Irish Water voted in favour of industrial action, up to and including conducting work stoppages, in a dispute concerning the threatened displacement of water service workers by private contractors. |
