whats wrong with contractorisation? Surely, contracting out certain aspects of work is a good thing. Contract cleaners, Catering, Domestics etc. It makes sound economic sense to contract those out.
In my youth, the erks cleaned the working environment, it took about 10 mins at the end of the shift. Bins were emptied at cease work.
Now we have civvy contract cleaning staff, our carpet is hoovered once a fortnight, bins are emptied around 10am, meaning that full bins are left throughout the building overnight, just adding to the risk of any fire spreading quickly. How can using a civvy contractor be cheaper than using erks, who would otherwise be sitting around the crew room having finished their work and handed in all tools and are just waiting to be released.
And I know who does a better job.
