Defend Robert ODonnell, UNISON Rep,

SECC
We, the undersigned, support Robert ODonnell in his appeal against
dismissal by the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre. We believe
that Robert, a gardener and UNISON representative, was unfairly sacked
by the SECC Management on 25 May. He was dismissed following an
alleged unwitnessed incident with his supervisor. UNISON is totally
convinced that this was a trumped up charge and that the dismissal
relates to Roberts role as a trade union activist. Over recent years the
SECC, which is 91% owned by Glasgow City Council, has refused to
recognise trade unions for collective bargaining purposes and has been
hostile to trade union recruitment activities.
Robert has twelve years service with the SECC during which time he has
never been the subject of a complaint, investigation or disciplinary action.
