Birmingham Council Dispute Update

UCATT members employed by Birmingham Council will be staging a 48-hour strike on the 23 and 24 April.

The dispute concerns the council’s decision to impose new contracts on staff, without consultation. Many workers will see a substantial cut in their pay.

It had been hoped that recent talks between the local government unions and Birmingham council chiefs would mean that fresh industrial action would not be necessary.

Unfortunately the talks have not made sufficient progress and UCATT has been forced to take fresh industrial action.
