Recognition successes for two unions

Workers in the body building and paint spraying shops of Hants and Dorset Trim have voted in favour of recognition for the RMT transport union.

The move was supported by 53% of the 64 workers making up the bargaining unit in the company, which is part of the Go-Ahead transport group.

Unite has won recognition at outsourcing company Capita at the Craigforth site in Scotland. The ballot result of the 750 staff who service customers of the Prudential finance group was: 97% in favour of recognition on a 60% turnout.
