Workers to strike at Liverpool's John Lennon Airport over pay dispute

The workers voted overwhelmingly for industrial action over health and safety issues, working practices, pay and claims that the company breached a recognition agreement.

Hundreds of airport workers in the UK are set to stage a series of strikes in the coming weeks in a dispute over pay and conditions.

Around 200 members of the GMB employed by Swissport at Liverpool's John Lennon Airport will walk out on August 22, August 24 and August 29 unless a "last-minute new offer" is accepted.
