Glasgow coffin makers to strike at Co-op Funeralcare in row over pay

Workers at a coffin factory in Glasgow are set to take week-long strike action in a dispute over pay.

Unite members at Co-op Funeralcare on Bogmoor Place will be walking out following the rejection of a real-terms pay cut. Around 50 craft workers based at the Co-op's only coffin manufacturing facility in the UK rejected the offer and voted to take strike action.

The union said the offer on the table by the Co-op is less than half that of the current real rate of living cost, which is 12.3 per cent.
