DO NOT WASTE YOUR VOTE

MAKE SURE YOU RETURN YOUR BALLOT PAPER

VOTE ‘YES’ TO BOTH QUESTIONS

 

Dear RMT Member, 

 

THIRD PARTY DISMISSAL BY KAD – MMADUKA JOSHUA OBI

ISS (KAD CONTRACT)

 

The closing date for the ballot is Thursday 25^th July, so if you haven’t done so already, now is the time to vote. Due to balloting laws I cannot stress enough how important it is that you fill in your ballot paper and return it as quickly as possible. It is vital that we achieve the highest possible turnout and the highest possible vote saying YES for action to demand that the Company immediately resolves this dispute and restores Brother Obi’s employment with ISS.

 

If you have not yet received your voting paper, then please contact the freephone helpline on 0800 376 3706 or email info@rmt.org.uk to receive a replacement ballot paper.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE ON BALLOT THRESHOLDS

 

Since the Trade Union Act 2016, where the government made the anti-trade union laws even more restrictive, all ballots have to reach two important thresholds in order for them to be valid. 

 

• At least 50% of all eligible members must vote 
• At least 40% of all those eligible to vote must vote Yes.  

 

As a result of these draconian restrictions every single vote counts. A simple majority is no longer enough so you cannot rely on other colleagues to get the vote over the line. Therefore, I urge you to complete and return your voting paper as soon as you receive it

 

 

VOTE YES FOR STRIKE ACTION AND ACTION SHORT OF A STRIKE

 

RETURN YOUR BALLOT PAPER

 

I will keep you advised of all further developments.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Michael Lynch 

General Secretary
