Re: Safety Concern's Staff travel for strikers

Safety Concerns:

That's an interesting point. However, it's been noted on this forum several times previously that ballots have been sent to illegible voters yet again so with the precedent set back in December that this rendered the whole ballot invalid, I really don't think it's a safe thing to bet your staff travel on the fact that this strike wouldn't be contested as illegal if argued later. I'm no expert in these matters but those are just my thoughts on it. I'd be happy to stand corrected but I do think it is a very risky move to jeopardise staff travel if you value it, on the possibility of it being reinstated later.

I think people are holding to that belief because that's what's happened in the past but in the past, management didn't take on the union either...
