UNISON Celebrates Victory Against Outsourcing
UNISON General Secretary Christina McAnea welcomed members from the south west to celebrate a major victory against outsourcing.
Members from Dorset, working across three NHS trusts, prevented the introduction of a subco that would have affected 1,700 facilities staff, including their terms and conditions, such as pensions.

- Caterers
- Housekeepers

“Every time we’ve seen a subco, we’ve launched a campaign against it – and this was no different,”
“Dorset’s victory is a brilliant example of how organising works”
This victory is a huge win for UNISON members, led by Christina McAnea, who has opposed subcos since 2017.
