Contract cleaner Mary McBride was among those taking part today:
Life is getting harder for cleaners. What’s happening on the ground is that hours are being reduced, pay is being cut, the workload is being increased and often we don’t have enough time or the right materials to do the job properly.
We want to build a better life for ourselves and for our families. We are prepared to work hard in our jobs and to work unsocial hours to do it, but we want to be treated fairly.
In February the Registered Employment Agreement was established as a forum for negotiations for the contract cleaning sector.
