Sign up to the Workers Rights Consortium says black and ethnic minority’s association

Dear vice chancellor,

I’m writing on Behalf of the universities Black and ethnic minorities association and as the guilds ethnic minority officer, to persuade you to sign up to the workers rights consortium.

I am very proud of the work the university has done in creating a positive discrimination free environment that, my self, the BEM association and the student we represent would love for you to extend the university excellent work in this area.

Students want to have the guarantee that the university garments are free from discrimination, can you imagine what it would be like to not be able to get a job because of your perceived ethnic origin? Or being directed into different jobs because of the colour of your skin?

Just last year I was horrified to hear about Ornamental Iron Workers not directing non-whites to the same jobs as their white counterparts resulting in a disparity of work and pay.

Signing up to the worker rights consortium is easy and it would guarantee that all the universities clothes, appareled and all the goods sold in shops on campus are free from abuses that the employees of Ornamental Iron Workers had to suffer.


All the Best
