Remploy Workers - No Rights to Work

No Rights to Work

Remploy - putting ability first

When all they want is to work it seems a disgrace that the disadvantaged should have another setback.

The staff of Remploy factories, across the country, are on strike today, due to threats of job losses. Remploy was setup to be a place disabled workers could find gainful employment with employers that took their disabilities into account: Under the scheme of Access to Work.


Now these same disabled individual find they longer have an access to work. Some of these workers have been working for two to three decades for Remploy.

Disabled workers have a hard enough time getting work, without their main resource becoming privatised. Some workers have been offered a pittance in redundancy and severance pay, but it will leave them poor and unemployable. When jobs are at their scares in nearly thirty years, the loss of this government-backed employment is a major loss.
The Remploy factories are going to be closed or be privatized. Those with New bosses could face a reduction in the severance pay -if further cuts in the work force take place at a later date. 


None of these disabled workers have a very bright future -that is why they are taking industrial action.
