Search author name words: PR SIPTU Urge Boots to Engage Constructively with Workers![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Ireland’s largest Trade Union, SIPTU have labelled the Boots Management as ‘belligerent and uncompromising’, for failing to acknowledge workers concerns. The trade union said the dignity and respect campaign was initiated following a number of complaints by Boots workers, who were extremely unhappy at the negative manner in which they were being treated by senior management, and their concerns not being taken seriously or dealt with in an appropriate manner. These concerns in part relate to the fact that this very profitable company (1 of 3 which broke the £1bn profit margin in 2010), fails to ensure adequate staff levels are maintained to provide a professional service to the customers without creating undue stress and strain on the workers. |
