Be the first to comment on this article

Almost 40 print and production staff at Chesapeake Labels’ Bristol site have signed a union recognition agreement with Unite.

Unite said it was in the process of electing union representatives and once this was concluded it would enter into discussions to put together a local working agreement.

Unite regional officer Steve Smith said: "This agreement brings to a conclusion an organising campaign which started at Chesapeake's previous site in Yatton.

"Since its  move to Bristol, Unite membership grew to a level which gave us the opportunity to open voluntary recognition agreement discussions. The company accepted that the majority of the workforce wanted the union recognition."
