AMAZON faces more strike action, with more than 1,000 workers expected to walk out at its Coventry site over three days next week.

The GMB union announced today that strike action will take place from Tuesday to Thursday, as its members’ fight for £15 hourly wages and union rights at the retail giant enters its second year.

Amazon workers in Britain have now taken more than 30 days of industrial action since the dispute began in January 2023.
