Staff at the iconic Nottingham music venue, Rock City, are unionising. Dozens of young, precariously employed zero-hour workers at the world-famous venue have made the brave and determined decision to campaign for a union voice at work — no small feat.
Workers have raised serious concerns about a wide range of workplace issues, including health and safety, sexual harassment, bullying, and overall working conditions.
Despite a request to meet with representatives from Unite the Union, DHP Family — the UK entertainment company that owns Rock City — has refused to engage in meaningful dialogue, enter recognition talks, or acknowledge the collective nature of these grievances.
As a result, staff and Unite are escalating to a full union campaign, with support from the wider music community in the region.
We are calling on MU members to show solidarity: please sign and share the petition to support Rock City workers in their fight for fair treatment and union recognition.
