Over 1,000 ambulance workers, who are members of the Unite union, are set to go on strike. The first day of their two 24-hour strike will take place on Thursday, January 19, and then their second day will be on Monday, January 23.
The union has confirmed that ambulance workers will join 23 picket lines across Wales in what they say is "their fight to prevent the Welsh NHS from collapse". It comes after hundreds of Welsh ambulance workers, who are members of the GMB Union, announced their plan to strike for four new dates.
On Wednesday, the union confirmed that around 1,500 of its members in Wales would take industrial action over pay and working conditions on Monday, February 6, Monday, February 20, Monday, March 6, and Monday, March 20. You can read more about the GMB union's industrial action here.
