Driving examiners working at hundreds of driving test centres across the UK are set to go on strike in the coming weeks - and the dates of their planned strikes have now been shared. The designated strike-period has been confirmed as running from December 13, 2022 to January 16, 2023, with staff at different centres set to strike on different days.
Most driving examiners working at centres in England and Scotland are set to strike in December, 2022, while staff at 16 driving test centres in Wales are set to follow with strike action in early-January 2023.
The industrial action comes after members of the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) union at the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and the Rural Payments Agency voted in-favour of strike action over pay, pensions, job security and cuts to redundancy terms.
