RMT confirms industrial action will continue into 2022

THE RMT has confirmed industrial action will continue into the new year as part of a long-running battle for pay justice across Scotland.

The rail union said that ScotRail members, embroiled for eight months in Britain’s longest ongoing industrial dispute, have agreed on new dates for strike action. 

Conductors and ticket examiners will also be joining the rest of their ScotRail colleagues in the strike action throughout Cop26.
