to be printed on a postcard or something similar. We're open to ideas. (Unfortunately, we aren't able to pay
for your work, but we have no wish to possess it!) ... read full story / add a comment

Outlined below is the divey up of electrical contractors and their employee’s pension monies taken in a highly questionable manner. All this information is taken from the attached company office returns of Pensions and Conditions Limited (EPACE)
It explains to gusto which TEEU use when trying to drag Electrical Contractors into the Labour Court to force them into the bad value for money CWPS.

If we were to make an award for the Gusto Used who would get the Prize Man ?????
