WORKERS at a rail operator will stage a 24-hour strike from Boxing Day evening, continuing the wave of industrial unrest sweeping across the UK.
Members of the Transport Salaried Staffs’ Association (TSSA) at CrossCountry will walk out from 9pm on Monday as part of a long-running campaign for a guarantee of no compulsory redundancies, no unagreed changes to terms and conditions, and a pay increase which addresses the rising cost of living.
The union believes that walkouts by staff will severely impact services at CrossCountry, which covers large swathes of the UK, from Penzance to the Midlands, Wales and northern England through to Scottish cities as far north as Aberdeen.
