Shocked to hear about allegations of #WageTheft at @brightonlc . All workers should be paid for their work! It’s time to pay up! #tefl @TeflUnion

The location for this has changed! Join us at the Preston Park Rose Garden for the picnic ☀️
In the background is an illustration from the 1880s of anarchist and union organiser Lucy Parsons giving a speech at a picnic. The crowd are waving flags and mugs of beer in the air; Lucy has her own beer mug next to her on the table she's standing on. The illustration is black on crimson with a subtle vignette effect. Over the drawing is some plain white text which reads: "MAY DAY PICNIC - bring your own food + games - get to know other organisers - everyone is welcome! Sunday 1st May 2pm @ Preston Park Rose Garden" At the bottom are the logos of SolFed and the IWW.

Yesterday our members did a Rep training to learn about workplace rights and how we can fight back and win against exploitative bosses . ✊🐈‍⬛ 🚩 Training union Reps is crucial to build a fighting union that can defend and support workers.

This kind of treatment is starting to become the norm rather than the exception when it comes to front-of-house in Brighton. We'll be running training in the new year for hospitality workers to help them Know their Rights and fight back. If you're interested get in touch!

Stories like this are going to become more and more frequent as cases rise in Brighton. If you are unhappy with the health and safety policy in your workplace demand a new risk assessment! We can support you in this process as well as any other issues you might be having.

Exploitation and abuse is endemic in the Brighton hospitality. We will be running a 'Know Your Rights' session in the near future specifically designed for hospitality workers. If you are facing similar issues with your boss get in touch!
