Unite has dropped claims against the BAM Ferrovial Kier joint venture (BFK) over alleged blacklisting of union members delivering Crossrail projects across the capital.
In a statement Unite said “BFK and Unite agree that there has been no contravention of the Blacklisting Regulations on the BFK Crossrail projects”.
Crossrail described the statement as an admission by Unite that no blacklisting had taken place, but in a further comment, Unite said that although it believed there had been no breach of regulations, the announcement only exposed the “weakness of current legislation”.
