Expense policies
This fund was set up to ensure that every member of staff at Mercat has equal access to union representation and collective bargaining agreements regardless of their wage or hours worked.
This fund is exclusively for workers at Mercat and expenses will be used for the payment of union dues to our designated union, Unite, or during periods of industrial action where our members have balloted to strike.
In the case of the latter this fund can act as a hardship fund for all of those members who may find the action of striking more financially taxing. If needed during strike action the funds managed here can be used for the payment of:
Utilities
Housing assistance
Transport fees.
Our members will be notified via email or emergency general meeting when this fund can be utilised as a hardship fund, based entirely off of the dates in which industrial action will be taking place. This funding will be approved in accordance with out ability to meet our members needs in addition to having the fund serve its dedicated purpose of funding union dues. This is to say we will approve hardship fund requests after our commitments to paying our members dues have been met.
IMPORTANT:
To ensure the approval of an expense we require all of our members to add a note at the end of our expense which clearly states the shared code which we have shared with our membership to ensure the validity of each request. This shared code can be found at all times in the group description of our whatsapp organising chat.
