  • WITH A packed sleeping bag over their shoulders, a miswaak in their pockets, and a tasbih to hand, the image of a Tablighi, or Jamaati, or a Jamaat Saathi is a uniform one around the globe.

    The image is one of simpleton, one who is on a simple, singular aim and mission, his objectives are very plainly set out: his own rectification.

    It is this very uniformity, simplicity and plainness that has allowed the Tablighi Jamaat to flourish throughout the world in less than a century, largely unhindered and away from any unwanted attention. The effort has reached millions of people worldwide, striking the chords of many through no elaborate campaigns or marketing but the tool of choice, Dawah. Personal communication, words spoken from the heart, with Ikhlaas (sincerety).

    A key factor that has allowed the effort to be so widespread, across borders and nations is the Tablighi Jamaat’s aversion to politics, and also its lack of

    any direct and p r a c t i c a l e c o n o m i c , p o l i t i c a l and social v i e w p o i n t s , even gaining it

    recognition from leading Western experts:

    ‘peaceful and apolitical preaching to the people movement’ Graham E. Fuller a former CIA official.

    ‘completely apolitical and law abiding’ Oliver Roy, a prominent authority on Islam at the French National Centre for Scientific Research.

    ‘an apolitical, quietist movement of internal grassroots missionary renewal ... for the efforts to reshape individual lives’ Professor Barbara D. Metcalf, University of Michigan.

    The heart and soul of the Tabligh Jamaat effort is Aamaal and Spirituality and this focus on one’s self and one’s own health, wealth and time is what has allowed the effort to be respected by even those that may not actively take part.

    However, recent times have seen a gathering storm on the

    horizon of this otherwise calm ocean. Waves of disunity crashing against this inconspicuous island. An effort that was once revered for it’s denouncement of chairs and titles is now being ripped apart like a piece of fine silk caught in thorns, for the very sake of establishing dominance. Break away factions scuffling over leadership disputes. Regional leaders in the process of wanting to consolidate their power bases, using the Masjid Wali Jamaat to

    fluff up the number of supporters on their side.

    The ripples of division have reached the UK shores, where the question of ‘who are you with?’ mirrors the Moon Wars, a bitter taste that we are still trying to clear our throats of.

    It’s all OK for those that have remained with the status quo,

    but, towns and areas that have gone the ‘new way’, what about their Saathis who do not wish to? Two mashweras in the same building? Have we not been here before with two Eids in the same masjid?

    An effort which is to unite the Ummah is disuniting themselves. With the passing away of elders, was this just a matter of time? It is easy to blame disunity on Shaitaan, however, man is not without his vices, questions of

    pride and ego come in. Mohammed and Yusuf

    went in Jamaat together and spent forty days abroad. Next year they were going to take up a foreign takaza together. Mohammed’s locality follows Dewsbury and so aligned to Nizamuddin, Yusuf’s however, has aligned to the ‘World Shura’.

    Mohammed’s path is one way, Yusuf’s is now another. Will they get their tashkeel together?

    ICWA serve up weekly breakfastAS THE mornings turn darker

    and colder, we all find it hard to get out of the warmth of our beds, especially if it’s to come to the Masjid for Fajr salaah. To encourage and motivate people in these dark and cold mornings the ICWA Youth Committee have started a new initiative by putting on a weekly breakfast club every Sunday.

    During the winter months when Fajr is late as it is, in theory it should be easier to come and pray, however, some encouragement is needed and the weekly breakfast is there to give that little boost.

    With being busy preparing for school, college or going to work

    Monday to Friday, many young people may find it difficult to come to the masjid so the aim is to start with one Sunday a week, and then over the winter months to create that habit which once a person gets accustomed to, can carry that throughout the year.

    The idea is to also allow young people to engage with the masjid, in the time after the Salaah, whilst the breakfast is being prepared, to engage in some zikr, recite Quran and have informal talks with the ulama, to nourish the soul before nourishing the body. The sessions are kept light-hearted and informal rather than any strict set criteria to allow them to develop

    naturally.Chair of IMWS Youth Committee,

    Mohammed Variava said ‘the initiative is proving to be quite popular and we are seeing a steady number of people attend each week. It is great to see madressa kids eagerly coming as well, with one father even telling me his son insisted to take him on Sunday. I hope this continues and young people take

    opportunities of coming and engaging with the masjid’.

    So whether its beans on toast, a desi omelette, sunny side ups or just some tea and biscuits do pop along. Every Sunday after Fajr !!

  • Following the event, Twitter became the platform to share the joy. Here are a few tweets that were posted:

    COMMUNITY groups from across Dewsbury came together to share the positive work they do and to see how they could link up on joint initiatives with other local groups.

    Dewsbury Town Hall played host to the 28 organisations represented and the event, ‘Meet Your Neighbours’, was organised by Kirklees Council in partnership with local community groups.

    The evening programme began with a short introduction followed by an opportunity for the local groups, which

    are heavily run by volunteers, to share their background, achievements and struggles.

    The evening saw representatives from Saville Town, Thornhill, Thornhill Lees, Chickenley, Overthorpe, Dewsbury Moor, Ravensthorpe to mention a few, bringing a diverse group of volunteers representing their diverse communities.

    Keynote speaker at the event, Mark Griffin, spoke on the potential behind social media and collaborative work to promote a local town and its

    positive stories. A shared vision was the idea of a Dewsbury Smile, a digital platform promoting positivity and encouraging third sector interaction. Another key point was partnership work with funding becoming scarce.

    Following sharing information on their organisations the attendees headed towards a finger buffet and the chance to network with each other. Plans are in motion to move the idea of Dewsbury Smile forward and for another meet up with even more groups as Dewsbury plan to meet some more neighbours.

    The RoseBy Binti Muhammed

    A GATHERING of poetry graced the splendour of the town’s library as Batley Poets gathered to celebrate diversity. Organised in partnership with Near Neighbours as part of the interfaith week celebrations, the event attracted poets of all ages, faiths and languages for an afternoon of awe.

    Batley Poets began life at the Batley Festival in 2012 when Mark Griffin joined Gujarati poets with poets reciting Yorkshire dialect. This year has seen a boost with the launch of a dedicated website which allows poets to submit their own poetry and has given an avenue for undiscovered poets to share their poetry.

    During Saturday’s poetry event held in the reference room of Batley Library, volunteer Bilal Saloo, who watches over the website, shared impressive statistics with the site receiving over 4000 views from across Europe as well as Canada, South Africa, America and the Indian subcontinent to mention a few. The site now has around 30 poets and showing a wealth of local talent with more and more sending their poetry through.

    Near neighbours, a national Church Urban Fund, aims to bring people together who are near neighbours in communities that are religiously and ethnically diverse, so that they can get to know each other better, build relationships of trust, and collaborate together on initiatives that improve the local community they live in.

    The Batley Poets team said,”Batley

    Poets are as diverse in our audience as we are in our poetry. It was again pleasing to see so many supporters and poets assemble for an afternoon delight ranging from original compositions to Shakespeare and Jalaluddin Rumi.

    “The room was filled with differences ranging across faith, race, ethnicity and age but that did not stop an afternoon of tears and smiles and shattering applause. It was an amazing feeling to be part

    of such a wonderful afternoon in what is the home of Batley Poets.”

    Parents outraged over Ofsted plan to question four-year-olds on clothing

    OFSTED has been heavily criticised following an announcement for inspectors to quiz primary school children as young as four and five if they are wearing a hijab or similar headscarf.

    Amanda Spielman, the head of Ofsted and chief inspector of schools, said the move was to tackle situations in which wearing a hijab “could be interpreted as sexualisation” of girls as young as four or five, when most Islamic teaching requires headdress for girls only at the onset of puberty.

    The Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) voiced its concern saying it unfairly targeted Muslim children because of the choice to wear the headscarf.

    MCB Secretary General Harun Khan, in a statement, said, “It is deeply worrying that Ofsted has announced it will be specifically targeting and quizzing young Muslim girls who choose to wear the headscarf. It sends a clear

    message to all British women who adopt this that they are second-class citizens, that while they are free to wear the headscarf, the establishment would prefer that they do not. The many British Muslims who choose to wear the headscarf have done extremely well in education and are breaking glass ceilings.

    “It is disappointing that this is becoming policy without even engaging with a diverse set of mainstream Muslim voices on the topic.

    “Such an approach risks being both counter-productive and undermining the very British values it claims to promote. One can only hope that this wrong-headed approach will be swiftly reversed, and the reasonable and sincere choices of young children and their parents - even if they are Muslim - will not be dismissed so easily.”

    “While respecting parents’ choice to bring up their children according to their

    cultural norms, creating an environment where primary school children are expected to wear the hijab could be interpreted a s sexualisation of young girls,” Spielman said.

    “In seeking to address these concerns, and in line with our current practice in terms of a s s e s s i n g w h e t h e r the school promotes equality for their children, inspectors will talk to girls who wear such garments to ascertain why they do so in the school.”

    However, local parents have raised concerns that children as young as four could be asked questions which undermine their clothing and

    appearance, leaving them feeling different from

    other pupils. Some local parents have also raised concerns over their ability to have a say in their child’s wardrobe and suggested if Ofsted’s concern is truly around ‘s e x u a l i s a t i o n’ then better g u i d a n c e t o w a r d s

    m o d e s t clothing in high school

    u n i f o r m s should be issued.

    The announcement is at the moment a recommendation, but one that has raised concerns with many Muslim families who feel targeted and losing the right to dress their four-year-old child.

    Cricket coaching in PalestineCRICKET COACHES from

    Batley travelled over 2000 miles to deliver special coaching sessions to children in the Middle East. Officials from Mount CC & Howizat Coaching headed off to Palestine last month taking the sport to new players.

    Two coaching sessions took place at venues in Bethelehem and Jerusalem.

    A morning session held at Al Khedar Sports Club in Bethlehem, West Bank, attracted 50 children aged between 7 and 12, with 29 girls and 21 boys taking part. The afternoon session was

    held at Mount Olives Sport Club, Jerusalem, and was attended by a phenomenal 87 boys aged 10 to 16.

    One of the coaches Yusuf Kayat told Paigaam, “These children have never played cricket before and really enjoyed the 3 hours coaching sessions during which they learned the basics of the wonderful game.

    “The Icing on the cake was the attendance of Sheikh Yusuf Senina, Imam of Masjid Al-Aqsa, who kindly attended the evening function and presented the coaching team with an appreciation award

    for organising the coaching tour.”

    Following the sessions, the children were presented with medals and certificates. The trip was funded through donations from local businesses who provided the equipment and branded T-Shirts for the children.

    After the coaching sessions the equipment was left for the children and the clubs to continue playing.

    During the visit, Mount CC officials visited refugee camps where they handed out food packs to the poor and needy people of Palestine.

    Mount CC would like to thank the 22 sponsors for their donations in helping to make the trip and sessions possible. Howizat coaching team were: Yusuf Kayat, Imran Kayat, Yahya Akudi, Abdul Ravat, Usama Sacha and Amjad Hussain.

    An exclusive video of the event will be shown at Mount CC’s 40th annual presentation night on Saturday 2nd December 2017.

    Anonymous survey launched to record discrimination in the workplaceRACIAL JUSTICE group

    JUST Yorkshire has launched an anonymous survey aimed at capturing the extent of racial discrimination taking place in the workplace. The survey aims to expose racial discrimination, institutional racism and bias suffered by employees.

    The project allows Black, Asian and Ethnic Minorities (BAME) working in a wide variety of professions and industries to anonymously share the types of abuse and discrimination they have, or are currently, suffering in the workplace without fear of reprisal.

    Reports, such as the Baroness McGregor-Smith review, found that people from Black and minority ethnic backgrounds

    are being held back in the workplace because of the colour of their skin at a cost of £24b to the economy.

    A report by the Runnymede Trust and Women’s Budget Group which claims the poorest Black and Asian households are being hit the hardest since the Government’s austerity imposition, and the Lammy review which exposed the shocking extent of racial bias in the criminal justice system, have presented evidence unearthing the grim reality of racial and social disadvantage in the U.K.

    Nadeem Murtuja, Chair of JUST Yorkshire, said: “Discussions on why BAME communities are struggling in the labour market often

    fixate on ‘meritocracy’, a word conveniently reserved almost exclusively for minority communities.

    “The finger is only ever pointed at minority communities and never the institutions that perpetuate the conditions which hold them back. Until these industries, institutions, geographies and impact can be properly established and exposed, we believe that the Government will take no action.

    “Our hope is that this survey will not only give a voice to those whose experiences of discrimination in the workplace have been silenced, but also to compel our government to take decisive and swift action to redress

    the gaping inequalities in our society instead of paying lip-service to damning reports on racial and social disparities in our country that are only regurgitating what we knew all along.”

    The survey, launched in November will run until 31 December when the results will be used to explore the economic, social impact on BAME communities, pin-point which institutions are responsible, and also to understand why aspiration and social mobility is a constant up-hill struggle for those from BAME backgrounds.

    HUMANITARIAN activist Bob Geldof handed back his Freedom of the City of Dublin award saying he did not want to be associated with the honour while it is also being held by Aung San Suu Kyi, who has been silent over the persecution of the Rohingya Muslim.

    In a statement, Dubliner Geldof said, “Her association with our city shames us all and we should have no truck with it, even by default. We honoured her, now she appals and shames us.”

    Dublin granted Suu Kyi Freedom of the City in 1999 as a symbolic gesture. Suu Kyi received a number of awards for her stance against human rights abuse in Burma. But since her release from house arrest and subsequent rise to power she has refused to acknowledge the attacks on the Rohingya minority. Going as far as even avoiding to say ‘Rohingya’ in interviews.

    According to Amnesty International, security forces have been responsible for unlawful killings, random firing on civilians, rape and arbitrary arrests.

    The Rohingya people who remain inside Myanmar (Burma) have been confined to their villages or displacement camps and segregated from other communities.

    Irish-born Mr Geldof who shook the world in the 1980s with Band Aid and Live Aid received an honorary knighthood from the Queen for his charity work. He said he was a “proud Dubliner” but could not continue to hold the freedom while Suu Kyi also held it.

    He added: “In short, I do not wish to be associated in any way with an individual currently engaged in the mass ethnic cleansing of the Rohingya people of north-west Burma.

    “I am a founding patron of The Aegis Trust, who are concerned with genocide prevention and studies. Its founders built and maintain the National Holocaust Museum of the UK.

    “I spoke at the inaugural National Holocaust Memorial Day at Westminster and in my time,

    I have walked amongst peoples who were sectionally targeted with ethnic cleansing.

    “I would be a hypocrite now were I to share honours with one who has become at best an accomplice to murder, complicit in ethnic cleansing and a handmaiden to genocide.”

    Myanmar leader Suu Kyi has failed to condemn the violence and is being slated by world leaders and UN officials who accuse her of turning a blind eye to the bloodshed.

    Oxford City Council voted to strip her of the Freedom of the City, where she was an undergraduate, citing deep concerns over the treatment of Rohingya Muslims under her watch.

    Kirklees Council’s engagement over their proposed five-year price hike on burials has been criticised and called a ‘paper exercise’ after it asks the public to balance the council’s bereavement costs.

    The six-week engagement which began at the end of October asks for the public’s views on the proposal, or suggestions as to how the Council can reduce the running costs of their bereavement service for charges to stay low. It is also only taking replies via emails.

    Criticism has ranged over the lack of information the process shares and the email only replies which exclude large parts of the local communities. There is also a lack of what the process will be after the engagement with only a mention that the Bereavement Service may contact certain individuals but not based on any criteria.

    The Proposal In September a report by

    Kirklees Council Bereavement Services proposed steep price increases to burials over the next five years.

    The cost of an adult Muslim burial by November 2021 is proposed to go up by around 75 percent from £1999 to £3525, whilst out of hours burial – burials after 3:30 pm weekdays and weekends – will more than double going up to £4041 in the same period.

    The changes also reduce the depth of the grave to 4’6” from the standard 6’. The 6’ grave will still be available but at an additional charge of around £200.

    The report also said, ‘the provision of Bereavement Services is a commercial operation for the council’ and refers to the deceased as ‘customers’. This angered many who criticised the Council for using the cemeteries as a profit-making venture and the language used when referring to loved ones.

    The report also said ‘Bereavement Services is a discretionary function for the council and it can, therefore, set its own service-specific fees and charges’.

    Whilst burial charges saw a huge proposed increase cremations would only increase by £34 in the same five-year period, moving from £326 to £360. This, the report and Cabinet said, was because of the competition faced by cremation services locally.

    The new charges were set to be passed in the Councils Cabinet meeting in September with a view to introducing them by 1 November 2017.

    But after receiving the report with the proposed changes just seven days before the meeting, local groups including Muslim Burial Council of North Kirklees, Huddersfield Muslim Burial Council and the IMWS Burial Committee presented their concerns before the cabinet supported by petitions by the public. This adjourned the increase with a promise of an engagement with interested parties, later extended to the general public.

    The EngagementOn Monday 30 October Kirklees

    Bereavement Services launched the long-awaited engagement to the disappointment of residents. The six-week engagement moved a step away from its previous reasons for the increase now stating, ‘Our current proposals take us to a full cost recovery model in five years, including any equipment and future maintenance costs’ and to run un-subsidised.

    The engagement announcement provides information like the 500 burials performed each year. From these 15 percent are performed ‘out of standard hours’and 25 percent are child burials.

    The council maintains 14 cemeteries across the district, 7 of which are closed to new burials.

    The announcement also has a list of burial charges from neighbouring authorities giving a comparison.

    It then goes on to say, “We would like your views on whether you feel the increase in charges

    needed for the service to operate on a non-subsidised basis - ie not subsidised by general funds or by diverting funds from other services.

    “You can have your say on these proposals, or make any suggestions on how we can provide the service in an affordable and more efficient way in the future.”

    It also states “We may invite you

    to a face to face discussion on the proposals,” but indicates no criteria as to who or why a face to face discussion could take place.

    However, the public access web page where the details of the engagement sits does not even have a link to the report or a list of the increase over the five years for the public to share an informed view.

    There are no impact reports or any other reports detailing what research has taken place.

    It also does not give a breakdown as to costs related to burials and the maintenance of the cemeteries. Which asks the question, how can the public present an informed suggestion of how the service can be run more affordable, as the engagement requests.

    The Council has also been criticised for asking the public to essentially do its job.

    Aziz Daji Chair of IMWS Burial Sub-committee told Paigaam, “We are very concerned about this so-called consultation by the council. It just seems like a paper exercise they are going through due to public demand.

    “They have chosen to do online responses which rules out hundreds of people. Also, they have provided minimum information which might mislead people as they haven’t said what they are proposing for the following years.

    “We hope everyone will respond to the council to express views strongly as the council needs to be told they are riding

    roughshod over citizens and we have to challenge this. IMWS will be making full representation on behalf of the community.”

    The DeadlineWith the deadline looming a

    public meeting by MBC North Kirklees, Huddersfield MBC and IMWS had been planned as Paigaam went to print. The organisations represent tens of thousands of people in Kirklees and expected to have a large turnout.

    The engagement ends on Friday 8 December and the organisers encouraged people to respond via email to [email protected]

    If the proposals go ahead the cost of burying loved ones could be beyond many households already struggling to meet their living costs.

    With the report only intended to go to the Council’s Cabinet meeting for approval, campaigners have questioned if the Council is really willing to listen or is set to instigate cost’s for burying the dead which has already been called profiteering from the dead.

    OVER 40 teachers from 13 schools attended a special open day to gain an insight into Islam and see what happens in Islamic institutes.

    Mount Pleasant Islamic Trust (MPIT) in partnership with Pennine Learning organised the visit to the Madina Masjid and Madressa Islamia on Purlwell Lane, Batley. A total of 41 teachers from primary and secondary schools took part in the initiative.

    The teachers in groups observed namaz at the Madina Masjid and after a brief tour understanding the workings of the masjid, they went to the madrasah where they visited many of the classes, viewed the new madressa syllabus and understood its benefits in making our children model citizens.

    Impressed by the above visit Sheryl Wynne, one of the teachers from Batley Grammer School, requested a special visit. This took place last month and coincided with

    interfaith week. In the morning Moulana

    Shokut Dadhiwala attended the school to deliver an assembly. In the evening the staff from the school visited the masjid and madressa and had a chance again to meet many of their pupils in a totally different environment.

    Alastair Ross from Pennine Learning said, “Having such programs go a long way in eradicating the wrong perception of Islam created by

    the wrong messages sent out by main stream media.

    “The teachers had a chance to observe and question the pupils. They were amazed at the discipline and humbleness shown by their own pupils in this different set up and how that was achieved.

    “The way forward would be for us to open our doors in this way helping to eradicate many of the myths that are prevalent in society today”.

    LAST MONTH Madressa Islamia had their 25th Annual Jalsah in the presence of Hadhrat Moulana Salim Dhorat Sb. D.B. in which 5 boys completed their hifz of the holy Qur’an.

    Mufti Zakaria Akudi said “We are very grateful to Hazrat for granting us this opportunity and enlightening us with his words of wisdom.”

    The boys who completed Hifz are: Muhammed Adam Master (H1); Safwan S. Kayat (H2); Adil Javed Laher (H3); Aamir Mohammed Seedat (H3); Muhammad Zafar Ahmed Khan (H3).

    Mufti Sahib added, “We commend and praise the hard work and dedication that has led to this outstanding achievement. We pray they are steadfast on their hifz till their last breath. Aameen.”

    ON POLAND’S 99th anniversary of independence, last month around 60,000 people participated in what was likely the largest far-right protest in Europe. Participants touting white nationalist banners and slogans and equating Islam with terrorism has become a norm at these hate protests.

    Last month was also Islamophobia Awareness month, which was co-founded by groups like MEND (Muslim Engagement & Development) and Muslim Council of Britain.

    Sadly, as displayed in the streets of Warsaw, Islamophobia is on the increase with many falling for fake statistics and hate speech to direct their anger.

    MCB on their website has a portal dedicated to Islamophobia which shows some of the major misconceptions around Muslims.

    A YouGov poll from 2015 showed on average people thought Muslims make up 17 percent of the population of the UK when the reality is 5 percent.

    BSA National Survey in 2013 showed 62 percent agreed that Britain would lose its identity if more Muslims came to live here. A rise from 48% in 2003.

    Across two surveys 80%

    of readers’ comments from a range of newspapers were found to be critical or highly critical of Islam and “the hateful way views are expressed against Muslims is notable.

    The list goes on with objections to Masjids being built and lack of employment opportunities for Muslim men and women compared to their white and Christian counterparts.

    The MCB also has a graphic showing 110 crimes were committed against Masjids between March and July this year, compared to 47 over the same period in 2016. These ranged from graffiti to smashed windows, violent assaults on worshippers and arson.

    Threats and harassments directed at Muslims were up in 2017 to 49, compared to 14 in 2016 and violent crimes rose from 5 to 11. This information was collected from police forces across the country by the Press Association. Many more incidents will have gone unreported.

    MCB say, “Whilst the best way to defeat hatred is to build stronger bonds between communities, there needs to be a strategy to proactively tackle this divisive issue for our society at large and help reverse this trend in anti-Muslim prejudice. Britain

    can be proud of its record as a tolerant society and so can the Muslims for their continued positive contribution in that enrichment.”

    Amongst their aims, MEND empower and encourage Muslims to be more politically active. They also list to ‘work with Muslim and non-Muslim organisations to ensure that anti-Muslim prejudice is regarded just as socially unacceptable as anti-Semitism and other forms of racism and xenophobia’ as one of their aims.

    Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn launched Islamophobia month in parliament with MEND last month.

    During the launch, Corbyn said he had spoken to a number of Muslim women about their experiences of Islamophobic hate crime and how it had affected them. He called for a unified approach, adding “an attack on one is an attack on us all”. He invited MEND to work with the Labour Party on their ‘Race and faith’ manifesto launched earlier this year.

    MEND also have a portal to report Islamophobia.

    This MCB infographic (on the right), is looking at hate crime statistics from 2016-2017.

    WHETHER or not a worker who is on call at their employer’s premises but who is allowed to sleep when their services are not required is entitled to be paid the National Minimum Wage (NMW) for the entirety of their shift is a highly fact-sensitive area of employment law that is of particular significance to the care sector, in which so-called ‘sleep-in’ shifts are common.

    It might be thought that someone who is permitted to sleep on the job would not be entitled to be paid the NMW unless they are actually called upon to perform some work, but that is by no means always the case.

    The Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) recently heard three appeals on this issue, two of them concerning care workers, and has given further guidance on the correct approach to take.

    In deciding the appeals, the EAT noted that a failure to pay the NMW when required can lead to penalties and even criminal sanctions against employers. There is, therefore, a pressing need for certainty in the law.

    Recognising the difficulty of the issue, the EAT commented that there is a clear dichotomy between those cases where an employee is working merely by being present at an employer’s premises, whether or not provided with sleeping accommodation, and those where an employee is provided with sleeping accommodation and is simply on call.

    There is no single key with which to unlock the issue of whether the NMW is payable during hours spent asleep.

    The test is a multifactorial one that requires an assessment of relevant factors, including an employer’s purpose in engaging a particular worker, restrictions on a worker’s personal activities during hours spent on call, the degree of responsibility undertaken and the immediacy of the requirement to provide services.

    The EAT acknowledged that such an approach means that no one factor can be treated as determinative and does not provide as much clarity as might be desired. However, there is no definitive test and each case must be decided on its own facts.

    One of the appeals was brought by a couple who lived on site and worked as wardens of a caravan park. The Employment Tribunal (ET) had ruled that they were at home and so were only entitled to the NMW whilst actually working. Their appeal was allowed as the ET had failed to make express findings on all aspects of the evidence including, importantly, the extent of the claimants’ obligation to remain at the caravan site throughout the shift. The matter was remitted to a fresh ET for reconsideration.

    The other two appeals, each brought by an employer in the care sector, were dismissed. The first concerned a domiciliary care support worker who looked after two clients in their own homes, sometimes working a day shift and sometimes a sleep-in night shift. When working nights, she was not allocated specific tasks and was allowed to sleep, but was required to remain in

    the house ready to respond if and when needed. The EAT upheld the ET’s decision that she was entitled to be paid the NMW for the entirety of her night shift. Her employer was under a regulatory burden to provide such care and was obliged to do so under its contract with the council.

    The second case was brought by a sleep-in carer paid £25 per night for providing supported living services alongside a waking night worker who was paid the NMW. As the claimant’s contract stated the he should be paid the same as a waking night worker, the ET and the EAT upheld his claim for unlawful deductions from wages. However, the EAT commented that had

    the issue not been resolved in that way and it been necessary to determine whether or not he was entitled to be paid the NMW for the entirety of his shift, the appeal would have been upheld as the ET had failed to carry out the multifactorial evaluation necessary to reach a decision in such cases. Rather, it appeared to have proceeded on the assumption that the requirement to be present throughout the sleep-in shift was determinative, which is not the case.

    Public Health England campaign to cut unnecessary use of antibiotics

    LOCAL Clinical Commissioning Groups are supporting a campaign to cut the unnecessary use of antibiotics which can reduce their effectiveness over time. Antibiotics are essential to treat serious bacterial infections, such as meningitis, pneumonia and sepsis but are frequently being used where not necessary to treat illnesses, such as coughs, colds and sore throats, that can get better by themselves.

    The Keep Antibiotic Working and Antibiotic Guardian campaigns are being run by Public Health England, with the support of a range of partners including NHS Greater Huddersfield and NHS North Kirklees Clinical Commissioning Groups.

    Members of the public, health professionals and health leaders are being encouraged to make a pledge that they can fulfil as part of the campaign.

    In a joint release, local CCGs said

    “antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threats facing us today and the overuse or misuse of antibiotics is making the problem worse.

    “Antibiotics are essential medicines for treating bacterial infections in both humans and animals, but they are increasingly losing their effectiveness. Bacteria can adapt and find ways to survive the effects of an antibiotic so that the antibiotic no longer works. The more you use an antibiotic, the more bacteria become resistant to it.”

    Without effective antibiotics many routine treatments will become increasingly dangerous. Setting broken bones, basic operations, transplants, even chemotherapy all rely on access to antibiotics that work. To slow

    resistance we need to cut the use of unnecessary antibiotics.

    Dr Steve Ollerton, local GP and

    Clinical Leader of NHS Greater Huddersfield CCG is encouraging everyone to take up the pledge:

    “We are asking everyone across the area to support this as one of the greatest threats to the health of our nation is antibiotic resistance. There

    are very few new antibiotics in development, which is why it is important existing antibiotics are

    used wisely and these life-saving medicines continue to stay effective for ourselves and future generations.”

    Dr David Kelly, local GP and Chair of NHS North Kirklees CCG also asks patients to remember: “Antibiotics should only be taken as prescribed, and never saved for later or shared with others. It is also important to use antibiotics in the right way - the right

    dose, at the right time for the right duration. Appropriate use of antibiotics will slow down the development of antibiotic resistance.”

    The content of this page is for general information. Please consult your doctor for more advice and diagnosis. Health Page DepressionWhat is true depression and how does this differ from being sad?

    Throughout life we often have set-backs that can make us feel down for example having a bad day at work. However people can usually over-come these obstacles.

    With true depression, people are unable to recover from these negative events and this can start to impact on their day-to-day lives.

    What are the symptoms of Depression?

    There are three main symptoms that can be noticed:

    • Low mood- this typically presents as a person seeming sad all the time

    • Lack of energy- sufferers can lose to ability to engage in normal activ-ities such cooking or maintaining good hygiene. Some people are un-able to leave their homes to shop or meet friends

    • Loss of enjoyment- activities that would usually stimulate a person’s in-terests are decreased such as solving puzzles or engaging in sporting activ-ities

    There are also associated symptoms that can be affected:

    • Brain function- there is a decrease in concentration levels, there may also be thoughts of self- blame, guilt and self-harm

    • Body function- waking up earlier than usual or a reduced appetite lead-ing to weight loss

    What causes depression?

    The exact cause of depression is unknown, however it can be due to a number of factors. Firstly, it may be due to a significant life event such as financial issues. In some people it may be because there is a family history of

    this illness so they have an increased risk to develop depression. In other people there may be no cause. De-pression can affect anyone and everyone at some point in their lives.

    I’m concerned that I know some-one that may have depression, what happens when I visit the GP?

    Firstly, the GP will assess the pa-tient by asking questions related to their symptoms. Following from this, they will send for some tests to rule out other causes of the symptoms if necessary. If deemed appropriate, the patient can be started on medication or referred to a Psychiatrist for a more detailed assessment.

    What can be done?

    Depression can be managed in two ways. The first would be to attend therapy sessions. Therapy is a won-derful way to help change the neg-ative depressing thoughts to more positive ones. The aim of the sessions would be to equip a person with cop-ing strategies.

    The second way is through med-ication. Anti- depressants work to increase the amount of certain chemicals in the brain to relieve the symptoms.

    How do I help someone with depression?

    Listen and be a good friend. Some-times all it takes is to spend time with a sufferer to understand the turmoil

    that they are in. Social isolation can often add to a sufferer becoming even more depressed. They can often neglect themselves so making sure they are eating can also help greatly.

    Mental health in the Muslim population

    There is a huge amount of stig-ma associated with mental health. A large population of the communi-ty sees it as the work of black magic and this causes social embarrassment and isolation, which can contribute to a worsening of a person’s depres-sion. Mental health should be treated with as much importance as physical health.

    For example if you have a chest in-fection you are more likely to seek advice from a doctor than a religious scholar. Mental health is no different to this. The brain is a part of your body and needs looking after just as much as any other organ.

    By all means seek advice from re-ligious scholars. Spiritual guidance can be a part of a coping strategy to help ease symptoms however a doc-tor should be involved in the overall management of depression.

    If you are concerned that you or a loved one may have depression, please visit your GP.
