UNISON Celebrates Major Victory Against Outsourcing

UNISON General Secretary Christina McAnea welcomed members from the south west to UNISON Centre to celebrate a major campaigning victory.

Members from Dorset, working across three NHS trusts, prevented the introduction of a subco that would have moved 1,700 facilities staff out of direct NHS employment, affecting their terms and conditions, including pensions.

“Every time we’ve seen a subco, we’ve launched a campaign against it – and this was no different,”

said Christina McAnea, who has led national opposition to subcos since 2017. She praised the campaign, stating that

“Dorset’s victory is a brilliant example of how organising works”
