“Dear Colleagues,
 Our
members are living through difficult economic times that have been
created by a small group of powerful and greedy individuals, such
as bankers, politicians and certain employers. When we had the opportunity
last year to hold these people to account in the run up to the Lisbon
Treaty, the TEEU was one of the few Unions that used the opportunity
to oppose the Treaty until such time as absolute assurances were
given about workers rights and the retention of jobs. The referendum
is over and all of the promises have been reneged on. Where are
the promised jobs? The Government and the Employers have repudiated
on our national agreements and living standards are being driven
down.
Our members need to rally, unite and stand firm together as a Union
if we are to have any hope of retaining and improving pay &
conditions of employment. Members need to come together, attend
at their Union branch meeting and have their voice heard. All our
Branch Meetings are open meetings and all members are welcome.
Details of times and locations of our Branch Meetings are available
under the Contact section of this website.
Remember, Unity is Strength and What We Have We Hold!"
Eamon Devoy General Secretary.
