AROUND 100 workers at ExxonMobil’s petrochemical plant in Mossmorran have withdrawn their labour in a dispute over health and safety concerns, their union has said.
The workers have “withdrawn their labour under the Employment Rights Act 1996 sections 44 and 100”, the union said. “It is completely unacceptable that the company and the various contractors on site are refusing to pay our members their wages. They have now called on HSE to launch an investigation after “various recorded incidents at the plant over safety”.“Unite’s members working for Altrad, Bilfinger, and Kaefer at the Mossmorran plant are rightly furious at potentially being exposed to dangerous chemicals due to failings in the plant’s safety procedures,” Bob MacGregor, Unite industrial officer, added.
“That’s why Unite is calling for the Health and Safety Executive to urgently intervene due to the seriousness of the claims, and the chequered history of the plant.”MSP for Mid Scotland and Fife who has published a report calling for a just transition for workers at the site, said: “Exxon-Mobil should hang their heads in shame that workers have been forced into taking strike action to protect their safety.
