London, UK. 31 October, 2019. Low-paid and predominantly migrant St Mary's Hospital Paddington cleaners, caterers and porters outsourced via Sodexo to Imperial College NHS Healthcare trust and belonging to the United Voices of the World (UVW) trade union take part in a coordinated series of 'five strikes in one day' involving also cleaners from the Ministry of Justice, University of Greenwich café workers, cleaners from ITV and Channel 4's offices and park attendants from the Royal Parks. The St Mary's workers are seeking the same terms and conditions as comparable in-house NHS workers and an end to outsourcing.
