Great honour to address @The_TUC Black Workers Conference this morning. And meet up with @fbunational delegates from @FBU_BEMM
🔥 A pay offer for 2024 would set a minimum maternity entitlement of 26 weeks on full pay for all firefighters and fire control staff. This is the direct result of pressure by FBU members, who will now vote on the offer. Whatever happens, our campaign for 52 weeks will continue
🚨NEW | Fire employers have made a pay offer to all firefighters and control staff. It includes: 🔥 A 4% pay increase 🔥 Up to a 50% increase in the retainer fee for RDS firefighters: from 10% to 15% in the top rate 🔥 A new minimum maternity entitlement of 26 on full pay [1/3]
Today #WeRemember firefighter Wilfred McLaughlan, who lost his life in the line of duty at a fire on Oldham Batteries site in 1972.
Misogyny, discrimination and bullying have no place in the fire and rescue service. Appalling messages sent by the most senior officers in Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service show that these issues go right to the top. We need systemic change to transform our service.
Everyone should be treated with dignity and respect at work. Everyone should have the opportunity to progress, and feel protected from mistreatment. Firefighters are speaking up about why equality matters. Fire service leaders must start listening.
⏰Last chance to vote in the FBU political fund ballot 💪Pay, pensions, cuts - it's all political. Many of the campaigns we’ve fought and won have only been possible because of the political fund. ✅Vote YES and get your ballot in the post today to be counted
.@fbunational safety reps from across the Fire Service have registered to take part in this important @The_TUC safety campaign. Well done 👏

The Fire Brigades Union is campaigning against the UK's Minimum Service Levels Act, advocating for the protection of firefighters' strike rights internationalfireandsafetyjournal.com/firefighters-u… #FireBrigadesUnion #Firefighters #StrikeRights #PublicSafety #FireRescue #UKLegislation @fbunational
Firefighters will have the chance to put all politicians to the test during a general election. The NHS, the welfare state and our fire and rescue service depend on our ability to campaign. 📮Vote YES to keep the political fund ⏰Don't delay - get your vote in the post
On Earth Day, we mark the work of those on the frontlines of the climate emergency. Communities all over the world are already facing the effects of rising temperatures and ecosystem breakdown. We demand urgent action.
To win a future for our fire service, we have to get our message across to politicians and the public. ✅Vote yes to retain the political fund and post your ballot paper today
FBU members have just a few days left to vote in our political fund ballot. The fire service is run by politicians. We need a political fund to be able to fight and win for retained firefighters, control staff and officers. ✅Find your ballot, vote yes, and get it in the post.
