Paul Grafton, GMB Regional Organiser said:
"Our members in Wandsworth face regular abuse from the public, they are out in all weathers patrolling the streets to ensure they are kept clear for drivers and yet they have some of the worst terms and conditions of employment.
"GMB members are asking for the sick pay in line with the local authority. I would urge Wandsworth Council to review this highly lucrative contract in a bid to bring it back under local authority control where they belong."
