Another day, another powerful showing from our striking @CwmTafMorgannwg Health Visitors. With ACAS talks scheduled this week, the message is clear: the health board must return to negotiations with an offer that meets our members’ expectations — or strike action will continue.

@CwmTafMorgannwg - Welsh Government’s position on Health Visitor banding is clear — “the job evaluation process needs to be honoured” We fully expect the Health Board to return to the table with an agreement that meets our members expectations. Anything less would be a disgrace.

The launching of the steel strategy is a critical landmark for a foundation industry, whose success is essential to the wellbeing of our economy and our national security. It is the first time in decades that a government has made a positive commitment to invest in the UK steel industry. It is essential that all such investment is clearly linked to rock solid job guarantees. This strategy must act as the foundation for building a successful green steel industry in the UK. Going forward the government must tackle excessive energy charges which make UK steel overly expensive. While, introducing watertight rules to ensure public sector always buy UK steel. It is also key that the @GOVUK backs UK steel in actions as well as words and presses on with ensuring all UK infrastructure projects use #UKSteel. This is possible and must be done. banburyfm.com/national-news/…

"The UK will become a dumping ground for steel made in other parts of the world because they're not going to be able to export it to the US." Wales Secretary, Peter Hughes, reacts to Donald Trumps steel tariff & the problems facing the UK steel industry. unitetheunion.org/news-events/ne…

Instead of leaving our security and our steel workers open to the whims of other countries, we should be protecting our domestic steel industry from unfair competition and ensuring that we can transition into a leading producer of #GreenSteel. 3/3

#UKSteel production is a matter of national security. We now need to change the rules to ensure that the public sector buys UK produced steel, wherever it is available. This will create jobs and drive growth. 2/3

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗳𝘀: 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝘂𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 #𝗨𝗞𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗹 Trumps’s steel tariff threat should be a wake-up call for this @GOVUK. I've long been calling for the steel industry to be classified as critical national infrastructure, like in the US. 1/3

“There is no justification whatsoever to slash their pay or for the threats of #fireandrehire – an abhorrent practice that should be banned outright.” @UniteSharon Share this post and ask Oscar Mayer to return to the negotiating table.

Great to have our incredible leaders from Oscar Mayer joining our Welsh Executive Committee today to discuss their ongoing dispute. The message from the WEC is clear, the fight against #FireAndRehire must continue and they have the committee’s unwavering support and solidarity.

This week, I asked the First Minister if she would join with me in condemning Oscar Mayer's appalling use of #FireandRehire tactics on their Wrexham workforce. @UniteWales @unitetheunion

“I am extremely proud to be here at our first ever policy conference, and I am extremely proud that our policy conference in Wales opens up with the equalities debate.” Our Equalities Officer, @JoGalazka opens up our first official debate on equalities. #UniteWPC24

And just like that, our first ever @unitetheunion Welsh Policy Conference is closed. Thank you to all of our delegates, guest speakers, staff and the events and venue staff for making this conference a huge success. Thank you all for your incredible contributions to #UniteWPC24

"Fire and rehire MUST be outlawed. Let us stand up for the rights of workers to feel respected and valued in their jobs." @unitetheunion Regional Officer, Jono Davies, moves our motion on outlawing #FireAndRehire at Welsh Labour Conference.

That’s a wrap from us at Welsh Labour Conference. Our highlight from the weekend was being joined by our incredible striking Oscar Mayer members in their usual noisy fashion. #FireAndRehire must be outlawed, we have to keep the fight going against this disgraceful practice!

Time is of the essence – under @TataSteelUK's current plans 2,800 steelworkers could lose their jobs in a few short weeks. The extra investment that @unitetheunion secured is now available and Tata needs to think again. #UKSteel @UniteEconomy Read more: energylivenews.com/2024/07/09/tat…
