National Delegate Conference 19-22 June
2007
UNISON backs Access to Work
 |
| Irene Stout |
Conference threw its weight behind the Access to Work scheme for
disabled people and recognised the important role it plays in supporting
people with a range of disabilities into work.
It pledged to campaign against the privatisation of employment
services which would have a serious detrimental impact on disabled
people.
Irene Stout, Edinburgh, told conference that this is an issue
which affects many of our members.
"UNISON has a proud record of supporting those in society and
the workplace who are disadvantaged for whatever reason," she said,
calling on the union to keep up the pressure on the Government to
rethink their privatisation plans.
