Workers employed by OCS to clean the British Airways offices at Heathrow are striking over poverty pay. Despite working tough 12-hour shifts day and night, the cleaners are paid the minimum wage (£11.44 per hour). They do not have a company sick pay scheme and do not receive a night shift allowance. The cleaners are struggling to meet their basic living costs such as rent and food for themselves and their families. Some are using food banks.

The cleaners need your help! To support their campaign for fair pay and better conditions, please use this link to send a message to the CEO of OCS and the CEO of British Airways to tell them to do the right thing: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/email-ba-ceo-to-pay-ba-outsourced-workers-a-fair-wage

OCS made operating profits of £28.3 million in 2023, while BA’s parent company, IAG, made £1.7 billion during the peak summer season last year. There is no justification for paying these hard-working cleaners poverty wages!
