Further industrial action is to be taken early next year at job centres across Liverpool with two additional sites to join walkouts.
Earlier this month, the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) Union confirmed staff from three city locations would 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 began their industrial action on Monday.
The union has now confirmed that staff from Everton and Innovation Park will be asked to join the additional strikes which are set to take place between January 3-7. In a statement on its website, the PCS Union said the walkouts would "come in what is traditionally one of DWP’s busiest weeks for Jobcentre activity."
