Hinkley Point contractor dispute resolved after workers walk out at nuclear power station site

A dispute that saw hundreds of workers at Hinkley Point C nuclear power station walk out over “concerns” about working arrangements has been resolved.

BusinessLive understands between 200 and 300 workers employed by the £23bn plant’s main civil engineering contractor Bylor, a partnership between construction firms Laing O’Rourke and French counterpart Bouygues Travaux Publics, were involved in the stand-down staged last Friday (April 1).

The joint venture is delivering works worth more than £2.8bn to the development near Bridgwater in Somerset, which is one of the largest building projects in Europe.
