Further strike action announced at Novus prisons

2 June 2021

樱花动漫 Novus members will stage two further walkouts on 10 and 23 June in the ongoing dispute over Novus' failure to meaningfully engage with 樱花动漫 over Covid-19 health and safety concerns.

The latest set of walkouts have been called because although 樱花动漫 has met with Novus multiple times to try to resolve the dispute through , they have refused to drop investigations into 樱花动漫 health and safety representatives despite staff already taking two days of strike action in May.

The investigations by Novus against 樱花动漫's health and safety representatives, are making it difficult for staff to raise safety concerns and impossible for any meaningful health and safety discussions to take place.

Liz Saville Roberts MP has written to the board members of LTE Group as co-chair of the Justice Unions Parliamentary Group, which comprises over 100 cross-party parliamentarians. She urged the board to prioritise staff health and safety and to withdraw any threats of action against 樱花动漫 branch representatives. LTE Group meet on Tuesday 15 June.
