Unite and GMB Scotland will be balloting Glasgow Life and City Parking employees for strike action
A union has warned of potential disruption during the 2023 World Cycling Championships if workers back strike action in a dispute over pay.
Meanwhile, Unison has served notice of intention to ballot members for strike action over pay in Glasgow City Parking and at the Emirates Arena, where artistic cycling and cycle-ball will take place. "If councillors want to bring a first-class event to the city, they can't give our members a second-class pay offer. They need to get on their bike and ask Scottish ministers for support to deliver a pay offer that values frontline council workers.
The GMB Scotland ballot will be posted out to members working in parking and at the velodrome on Monday June 26. "They overwhelmingly voted to reject Cosla's pay offer and have made it clear they are willing to take strike action to secure an improved offer."Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said: “Unite is standing up for our members in City Parking and Glasgow Life. They deserve a fair pay award along with all local government workers across Scotland.
