Stirling Council workers are among those preparing to strike across the country after they rejected a 3.5 per cent pay offer.
Members of UNISON union, the largest in local government, rejected the revised offer from Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (COSLA) outright and voted overwhelmingly to continue with their strike plans in councils across Scotland.
UNISON said the offer still fell far short of the Joint Trade Union’s claim (submitted in January) and far short of the current rate of inflation, which continues to rise.
