This is the list of documents available for the submission Motion by Councillor Dan Hutchison:- "Council notes that the workers of the Village Hotel in Govan took the first hotel strike action in the UK since 1979 starting on the 9th August 2025. Council further notes that this action was required due to complaints on the grounds of equal pay, zero-hours contracts and age based pay disparity, in addition to failures to permit paternity leave and provide acceptable breaks. Council understands that this action was caused after over a year of negotiations by the workers during which the business failed to meet an acceptable settlement. Council celebrates that on 22nd August 2025, the workers accepted a negotiated settlement with their employers which settled pay disparities with the Edinburgh site, ended zero-hours contracts, as well as backpay to April 2024 and with a commitment for the business to pay the tax burden on this backpay. Council commends the brave action taken by these young workers in such precarious employment for standing firm for their rights and making such material improvements collectively to their working conditions. Council is encouraged by these wins by the workers of the Village hotel and hopes that hospitality businesses across the city take cognisance of the gravity of the victory that these workers have secured and ensure that they move to ensure their employment practices are not considered to undervalue or discriminate against their workers.".
