Close The Gap petition

Please add your name to our petition against:

 

  • BT is a multinational FTSE 100 company and is the leading telecommunications brand in the UK.
  • BT uses agency staff from Manpower, with many earning as little as the Government’s legal minimum rate of £7.50 per hour.
  • The vast majority of these agency staff are employed on Pay Between Assignment contracts which means they are exempt from equal pay protection. As a result, they are paid less for carrying out the same tasks as their colleagues employed directly by BT.
  • We, the undersigned, call on BT and Manpower, to ensure that Manpower workers are paid at least the real Living Wage rate of £8.75 per hour and cease using exploitative Pay Between Assignments contracts.
