Staff at the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) are set to launch a fortnight-long strike in a move expected to cause delays for those motorists a driving licence.
Members of the Public and Commercial Services union (PCS) are set to stage a walk-out at the agency's headquarters in Swansea from Sunday, 11 June, until June 25 as part of a long-running civil service dispute over pay, pensions and working conditions. The union said the walkout is likely to lead to backlogs for driving licences and tachographs.
The workers, who print materials for the DVLA and other Government departments, will take industrial action at the agency's Ty Felin and Morriston offices in Wales, where motorists applying for a driving licence renewal or replacement are directed to send their application on the gov.uk website. The strike is planned to last 15 days in total.
