UK engineering construction workers demand the right to work

At Staythorpe Power Station in Nottinghamshire Alstom has sub-contracted two overseas companies to carry out construction work on the site.

Unite believes that the two overseas companies refused to accept applications for work from UK workers, intending instead to use more than 600 workers from other countries on the project.

With local workers from the engineering construction industry now unemployed, this cannot be right.

All UK workers are asking for is the right to be considered for work on this construction project.

Unite the Union is calling on the government to ensure that all engineering construction employers recruit local labour, especially those out of work, onto all work in major construction projects.
