Around a dozen truckers and shunter drivers at A.G. Barr's Cumbernauld production and distribution centre have rejected a five per cent pay rise, according to the Unite union.
Scots have been warned that summer supplies of Irn-Bru could be ‘at risk’ as A.G Barr workers ballot to strike in a row over pay.
Unite the union say their members have rejected a five per cent wage rise offer - which equates to a real-terms pay cut due to the cost-of-living crisis. “Well that’s exactly what’s on the horizon if the management of A.G. Barr don’t revise their current wage offer to Unite members. In reality what’s current is a brutal real terms pay cut.
Andy Brown, Unite industrial officer added: “Unite’s members keep the Cumbernauld factory of A.G. Barr running smoothly. Without them it will undoubtedly have a big impact on production and distribution.
