Metrolink tram workers to be balloted for strike action
Commuters wait to board a tram in Manchester, after the Prime Minister Boris Johnson said people who cannot work from home should be ‘actively encouraged’ to return to their jobs from Monday
Campaigners say the former prince must face criminal probe
METROLINK tram workers in Manchester will begin balloting on Monday on a call for strike action over pay.
More than 600 drivers, controllers, engineers, customer service and business support staff, who are members of the Unite union, have rejected a “woeful” 4.5 per cent pay increase following years of below-inflation pay rises.
The drivers want the company, owned by British-French privateers Keolis-Amey, to provide guaranteed above-inflation increases over the next three years.
