Alan Robertson, ATUC President said, "We are sending festive greetings to all, and especially to our trade union members who are providing essential services over the Christmas and New Year period.
"We hope everyone enjoys the festive season, and gets a chance to recharge their batteries to continue the struggle against austerity in the New Year, by looking after all our members' interests and furthering the cause for fair treatment, respect, dignity and equality for all at work and in life in general.
"Have a great time everybody!"
