“Cleaners at £24,000 a year private school ballot over strike action”

Cleaners at a £24,000 a year girls private school are preparing to vote on strike action over contract changes.

The ballot comes after cleaners from James Allen’s Girls School in East Dulwich Grove, were informed by their contractor, DB Services, of changes to terms and conditions in their contract without consultation.

One cleaner, Gloria Chalaco, 48, from East Dulwich said: “They didn’t consult us at all—they just started implementing cuts and changes, ignoring our voices.

“We can’t just find another job to make up for such a significant income loss, especially with scattered weeks off throughout the year. Our bills and rent don’t stop.”

Ms Chalaco said the workers are also denied sick pay…

The migrant workers – members of United Voices of the World (UVW) union – resorted to “working under protest” after being informed last month that changes to their working hours and contracts would take effect imminently…

So far, UVW said JAGS has “refused to negotiate”. …

JAGS and DB Services has been approached for comment.
