PCS DWP North London Branch protest - Marylebone Job Centre
Channel: PCS Euston
Date: 2013-07-21

In May 2013 the PCS union were made aware of a plan to sack DWP North London PCS members via fake Performance Improvement Plans in a hit list of predetermined sackings:

North London District Management need to reduce headcount by March 2014 so has embarked on a sacking rampage.

Although talks have started between District Management and the PCS branch, there is no confidence that procedure has been applied appropriately. We believe this is a crude attempt to reach their headcount target.

The PCS demands are clear:

Withdraw all warnings via PIPs where policy has not been followed

The PCS members in North London are tired of the constant abuse of power by North London Management and are ready to take action. We need more workers not less.
