Back to all Motions

Conference
2009 Water & Environment Service Group Conference
Date
4 March 2009
Decision
Carried

This Water and Environment conference notes the recent European Parliamentary decision to end the potential for opting out of the Working Time Directive.

To ensure compliance when this becomes a reality all Water and Environment branches are encouraged to enter into early dialogue with their employer.

This conference further calls on appropriate materials to be produced by head office as soon as practicable combined with relevant publicity to assist branches in Water and Environment.
