Crossrail go hysterical over unionised contractor after safety concerns were raised

Today (Friday 14th) at 3pm every unionised worker for E.I.S. electrical contractor on Crossrail at Westbourne Park tube will be searched and removed from site. 

McGingley union rep was dismissed from site earlier today.

 

This is the opening shots in what appears to be a major battle over unionisation and safety on the Crossrail project. Unofficial picket lines look set to appear very soon and could cause chaos in West London.

 

Bernard McAuley UNITE national Construction Officer has been in negotiations at the Crossrail project all day.

E.I.S. Electrical working on the BFK (BAM FERROVIAL KIER) CROSS RAIL tunnelling contract company have been removed for hi-lighting safety issue

Unite shop steward Frank Morris was banned from the construction site after raising saftey issues on the tunnel boring machine he was removed from site and placed in a site hut for 11 hours per day with absolutley no job to do in solitary confinement.

E.I.S. electrical supervisor was removed from project after taking a picture of 11000V HI VOLTAGE CABLE which was lying under bolders  and  had scaffold clips and boards thrown on it because he took the picture to present to the in house safety team he was removed by main contractors  BFk's MR Horrello working on behalf of Ferrovial.

BFK have decided to relieve themselves off all responsibility and Terminated  E.I.S. contract mid term even though there is a further 3 years on the contract and other recruitment agencies are actively recruiting positions and even actively poaching E.I.S. employees.

 

Unite the union sees it this a attack on the union organisation. The primary motive for the removal of E.I.S. from the Westboune project  is  to to remove a unionised workforce who's representatives wanted to participate in the safe operation of the BFK Westbourne Park cross rail project.
