BT accused of 'misinformation' campaign ahead of strikes
BT stands accused of running a"misinformation" campaign against unionized staff at its Openreach subsidiary as tens of thousands of network engineers prepare to go on their first national strike since 1987.
"Currently, there are many rumors and pieces of misinformation circulating around BT and Openreach. These anti-strike myths are being circulated by Team Leaders and Line Managers who will be under instruction from Senior BT bosses to do so." "Make no mistake, these cynical tactics are a concerted and planned effort to weaken your resolve and break your strike," said Kerr.over the imposition of a flat £1,500 pay rise paid to 58,000 frontline workers in April. BT initially offered £1,200 before increasing it.
