Cleaners from the Service and Food Workers Union today awarded a Golden Toilet Brush Award to OCS (One Complete Solution), a Trans-National cleaning contractor, who the Union say has scored an own goal by refusing to play fair with their staff negotiations.

"Whereas the World cup's prestigious Golden Shoe award is for outstanding performance by an individual, the Golden Toilet Brush is for awful performance by an employer," says Fala Haulangi, Lead organiser for the Clean Start: Fair Deal for Cleaners campaign run by the Service and Food Workers Union Nga Ringa Tota (SFWU) and the LHMU in Australia.

"In New Zealand, the Golden Toilet Brush Award for 2010 has gone to Trans-National cleaning firm OCS, who have scored an own goal by using our members as pawns in their own commercial dispute with the District Health Boards," says Fala .
