Dozens of bin workers and street cleaners across Liverpool have suspended strike action.
More than 80 workers from Liverpool Streetscene Services Limited (LSSL) had been scheduled to take industrial action across eight days this month starting tomorrow, Friday March 10. Unite the Union has now confirmed that action has been halted to allow for “constructive talks” with LSSL management.
Brian Troake, Unite regional officer, said: “Unite have today agreed to suspend the upcoming period of industrial action at LSSL to allow meaningful dialogue to continue with management. Unite remain confident that we can reach a negotiated settlement and draw this dispute to a satisfactory conclusion. However, if the outcome of these meetings fail to meet our members’ aspirations, Unite will not hesitate in recommencing industrial action.
