Time and attendance network sets up user-definable working patterns and rosters

Cheshire West and Chester Council workers walked out at the weekend over changes to their contracts. The dispute is over changes to staff who were previously employed by four local authorities covering the area, prior to the formation of Cheshire West and Chester Council in 2009. The workers had been previously employed by Ellesmere Port and Neston, Vale Royal, Chester District and Cheshire County Council. Unions say the changes had taken “£4m per year out of the pocket of council staff”.
