UNISON has warned that strikes will see school closures and waste piling up on the streets of Lanarkshire.
Scotland’s largest trade union has demanded a meeting with, and immediate action from, the First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and the Finance Secretary Kate Forbes over the local government pay dispute.
Last week the union served notice to 31 Scottish local authorities and Tayside Contracts. The union is taking targeted strike action, which means select groups of workers will be balloted.
