Hear from members of Brighton Hospitality Workers, a Solidarity Federation campaign that has claimed thousands in owed wages for hospitality workers through direct action solidarity. They will discuss the challenges of organising in a sector where casualisation and wage theft are commonplace, the best approaches for winning disputes and how this fits into an anarcho-syndicalist strategy of workplace organisation.

There will also be a workshop on the types of casework carried out by Solfed, discussing how to support and pursue a dispute from initial meetings and advice to demand letters, direct action and escalation strategies.

Open to all interested in the Solidarity Federation, Brighton Hospitality Workers, anarcho-syndicalism and direct action organising.
