Equal rights are NOT special rights
Demonstration outside 2-7 Town Hall Parade, Porden Road, in Brixton (behind the Town Hall)
Friday 29 July - 1-2pm
Disabled colleagues in Lambeth Council have been treated appallingly by senior management and HR during the recent housing restructure. They have been denied appropriate opportunities over the years for development and training and were then expected to compete in interviews with their peers in a process in which they were clearly disadvantaged as a result of their being Disabled. The result unsurprisingly is that these colleagues are now at risk of redundancy. We believe that management and HR have used this restructure to deliberately remove these colleagues from their posts. We believe the current budget reductions and cuts are being used as a smoke screen to allow managers to get rid of staff they see as being difficult, underperforming or problematic to manage. We will not stand for such blatant disability discrimination.
UNISON Stewards in HRE and Disabled and non Disabled UNISON members and others have called a Demonstration to expose this unfair and discriminatory treatment of our members.
We urge you to attend this demonstration on Friday to stand in solidarity with your colleagues so we can send a strong and collective message to Lambeth Housing management and HR that we will not accept such appalling treatment of some of our most vulnerable colleagues!
Stand against disability discrimination – don’t let this happen!
