RMT welcomes government commitment.
Offshore workers union, RMT today responded to the Energy Security and Net Zero department
promising action on jobs, investment and clean energy.
An RMT spokesperson said: “We welcome the government’s commitment to billions of pounds of investment into the UK energy industry, environmental commitments and the roll out of a new skills passport.
“The government is listening to trade unions which is in marked contrast to the previous Conservative government.
“We do need more detail on how the skills passport will take shape, especially on how it aligns with safety certification and guarantees on the involvement of trade unions in the energy and offshore sector throughout the delivery process.
“The government also needs to introduce measures to protect our energy sector members from turbulence on the international energy markets.”
