As if fire and rehire tactics weren't bad enough, Tetrosyl is now undermining a lawful strike with plans to use agency staff to cover the duties of striking workers today and in future stoppages ❌

From today, women effectively work for free for the rest of the year. Why? Because the gender pay gap remains at 10.9% ⚖️
We're calling on the Chancellor to again significantly increase minimum wage rates in next week’s Budget, to help close the gender pay gap 💷
