Outsourced Merseyrail station cleaners are calling on the travel company to employ them directly.
The "Heroes to Zeroes" set up a picket line at Liverpool Central Station on Friday afternoon to protest againt Merseyrail's controversial contract with Mitie. They are involved in a long-running campaign to be brought in house.
Last year seven MPs, the Mayor of Liverpool and local councillors put their names to a letter calling on Merseyrail ’s managing director to change their status. Merseyrail’s contract with Mitie ends in 2023 and union is urging the company to use the opportunity to finally put an end to the outsourcing of cleaning.
