The GWU declares an Industrial Dispute with NetEnt & Evolution Gaming Group

- The Companies’ failure to acknowledge the GWU as an employee representative for the purpose of collective redundancies under the Collective Redundancies (Protection of Employment) Regulations.
- The Companies’ refusal to provide the union with a statement in writing giving all relevant information, with the reasons for the redundancies, the number of employees the company intends to make redundant, the number of employees normally employed by it, the criteria proposed for the selection of the employees to be made redundant, details regarding any redundancy payments which are due and the period over which redundancies are to be effected.
- The Companies’ wholesale breach of the Collective Redundancies (Protection of Employment) Regulations and the Transfer of Business (Protection of Employment) Regulations.
The Union has reserved the right to take industrial action in furtherance of the said trade dispute, with immediate effect.
The GWU advises that these measures have become necessary given the gaming companies’ declared and manifest unwillingness to consult it, as the employees’ representative, in order to avoid mass redundancies in the igaming sector. The Companies are reportedly planning to lay off over 300 employees, with no effort being made to avoid redundancies, and by engaging in anti-union tactics.
