Safety in Numbers
Several readers from Cordia have been in touch again - see post dated 22 January 2011.
Apparently some Cordia workers have already written to their employer - making it clear that they are not agreeing to the changes that are being imposed.
But others are scared of the consequences - fearful that they might lose their jobs.
Now this is nonsense - of course.
Because Cordia and Glasgow City Council would be in big, big trouble - if they were foolish enough to punish people - just for standing up for their rights at work.
One way round the problem - if people really are are anxious - is to write to employer as a group - with people all saying the same thing - and signing the same letter.
As the saying goes - there's safety in numbers.
