WELLLLLL.......
I am horrified!!
My hubby works at one of these sites and he knows nothing about it...
He said there was some talk about it a while back but they were told it was all off. I can't get it....The newspaper report says the council are locked onto a contract with Australian firm Global Renewables....what has that to do with SITA then, the firm that pays the wages of the local attendants at the centres and collects all the skips?
I think it's awful that this is in the paper before the workers themselves have been told anything about it!
I also think it's a typical short sighted money-grabbing scheme that will result in more fly-tipping than ever! We already have an entire 3-piece suite dumped in our back alley..it will be even worse with less tips to get to...
.....And they were all told not so long ago that it was practically a 'reccession-proof' job as even if SITA moved on or did not win the contract, they would be still in jobs under the LCC....
GRRRR I'm angry!
