Under the proposed restructure, workers - belonging to a 99% black and brown workforce - will be forced to reapply for jobs with lower salaries or face redundancies.

I'm usually strongly against the practice of #FireAndRehire, which always results in an erosion of workers' rights.

But I think we could do an exception with the #Met.

The criteria for rehire could be simple: not being accused of rape, not sharing pictures of dead ppl on social media, not doing strip searches on minors, etc...

The shopworker union Usdaw has been granted permission from the Supreme Court to proceed in a challenge to Tesco’s tactic of firing staff and then rehiring them on less favourable contracts https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/dec/22/usdaw-union-right-to-challenge-tesco-fire-and-rehire-supreme-court #FireAndRehire #EmploymentLaw

Shameful that @[email protected] are dismissing their staff using #FireandRehire tactics. Solidarity Kevin and your colleagues - one day valued and thanked by the company as key workers, the next your contract terminated and terms & conditions removed. This practice needs to be illegal https://twitter.com/kpb75/status/1380545516145115141
