Our members in the welding and fabrication department of City of Glasgow College deserve to feel safe at work with the proper air-fed RPE masks. Yet, the biggest college in Scotland refuses to provide them.

Other colleges provide air-fed RPE; why won't City of Glasgow?

Today, we held a mega picket at GCU, with special guests and faithfuls of the trade union movement, Roz Foyer and Paul Nowak. Together with striking members at GCU, we demanded an end to compulsory redundancies and to #Savethe100
