Gas engineers in northern England to ballot for strike action over working conditions

ALMOST 1,000 gas engineers in northern England have voted to ballot on strike action over excessive working hours, safety and an alleged culture of workplace bullying.

Members of general union GMB working at Northern Gas Networks (NGN) voted 99.5 per cent for action in a turnout of 97 per cent.

NGN is responsible for repairs and maintenance of domestic and business gas supply networks across the region.
