Further industrial action is set to take place by East Midlands Ambulance Service next week with more than one union taking part. The service will be taking part in strikes from 6am Monday, February 6 until 8am Tuesday, February 7.
In addition to these strikes, UNITE and GMB have also planned strikes for Monday, February 20, Monday, March 6 and Monday, March 20. As the current mandate to strike covers a six-month period, further dates of industrial action may be announced.
Ben Holdaway, Director of Operations at EMAS said: "Previous industrial action days at EMAS have been immensely challenging, and we expect the same again on Monday and Tuesday. We continue to work closely with trade union colleagues, and NHS and blue-light service providers across the region to do all we can to minimise the impact on patient safety.
