Further bin strikes on the horizon, workers warn after talks with Glasgow city council fail
Rubbish waiting to be collected

REFUSE workers in Glasgow have warned that further strike action is on the horizon after recent talks with the council failed to fully address their concerns over pay.

The GMB union said that three-quarters of members in the city’s cleansing services believe that the talks, which yielded 14 action points for the future of the service, did not go far enough, with four-fifths of those members saying they would be willing to strike again in response.

The workers, who took part in strike action during the Cop26 summit earlier this month, will be formally balloted in December.
