'Keep Glasgow's older peoples residents safe’ say UNISON members as strike action goes ahead to defend standards and wages

UNISON members across Glasgow are embarking on further strike action after discussions with the City Council this week failed to reach a settlement.

Members are on strike from 8 am on Friday 14th until Monday 17th February at 8am.

Members have been in dispute since January and this the third strike action taken by the city’s care workers in response to the council’s decision to enforce new job roles, longer shift patterns and pay cuts of up to seven per cent.
