EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES AT IDEAL CLEANING CONTRACTORS

Early day motion 176, tabled 10 January 2001 by Gerald Kaufman (Labour). Signed by 25 members.

That this House expresses its disgust with, and condemnation of, Ideal Cleaning Contractors of 41 Longcauseway, Farnworth, for persisting in failing to pay their former employee, Mr John Carroll of Gorton, Manchester, holiday pay due to him since May 2000 and for deliberately refusing to respond to correspondence sent on behalf of Mr Carroll by his Member of Parliament, the Right honourable Member for Manchester, Gorton; warns other potential employees to steer clear of these disgraceful employers; and calls on potential customers and clients of Ideal Cleaning Contractors to have nothing to do with an organisation which cheats those who work for it.
