Statement from NG Bailey regarding the proposed Building Engineering Services National Agreement (BESNA)
‘The BESNA agreement relied on the UK’s leading engineering companies adopting one single agreement that would introduce a modern working environment.‘Following the announcement from Balfour Beatty Engineering Services last Friday, the future of the BESNA is now untenable. NG Bailey can therefore confirm it will withdraw the BESNA contracts and will continue to work to the current working rule agreements.
‘The company welcomes Unite’s statement that it is committed to wide ranging talks on modernising the industry.’
