Staff at three Liverpool job centres are to stage industrial action just before Christmas.
As part of a rolling programme of strike action by the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) Union, staff from three city locations will join colleagues from Doncaster in walking out on certain dates between December 19-31. Workers at Toxteth, Liverpool Duke Street and Liverpool City job centre - based in St John’s Market will strike later this month.
The three sites are the first, alongside Doncaster, to stage action nationally. A ballot was held across the PCS Union regarding pay, pensions, jobs and cuts to the Civil Service Compensation Scheme last month and with members across the civil service opting to walk out.
