Novus strike ballot opens

The row centres on Novus's failure to meaningfully engage with 瓜神网 over Covid health and safety concerns and on-site provision. Novus has refused to drop complaints and investigations against staff who have raised safety concerns. As these staff are 瓜神网's health and safety representatives, 瓜神网 believes it is impossible for the employer to meaningfully engage in health and safety discussions until this intimidation stops.

If 瓜神网 members back strike action, educators at 49 prisons and young offender institutions in England and Wales will walk out.

Tha ballot will close on Friday 9 April.
