M&E workers latest news and campaign updates

 

Urgent Attention - All Unite members in M&E Contracting / Building Services Engineering, working or graded under:

  • JIB (Joint Industry Board for the Electrical Contracting Industry)
  • SJIB (Scottish Joint Industry Board for the Electrical Contracting Industry)
  • JIB-PMES (Joint Industry Board for Plumbing Mechanical Engineering Services in England and Wales)
  • SNIJIB (Scottish and Northern Ireland Joint Industry Board for the Plumbing Industry)

The future of your hard won skills, trades, professions and associated terms and conditions of employment are facing an unprecedented threat as some major M&E contractors threaten to pull out of our national agreements. Unite shop stewards and officers have launched a campaign to oppose these changes. Standing together you can successfully defend our national agreements.

Unite needs you to get involved, four steps to keeping construction agreements:

  1. Spread the word: Tell your colleagues about the threat to collective agreements. 
  2. Keep informed: Unite will put together information about what the employers are planning, check back regularly on this site for updates.
  3. Be prepared to fight for your agreements: Don’t let the employers smash what has taken years to build. Make sure Unite has your up to date details - talk to your rep or update your details via MyUnite.
  4. Join Unite: Remember to encourage those not in the union to join Unite.
