A new wave of Driving and Vehicle Licencing Agency strikes has been announced by workers due to a long-running dispute over jobs, pay, pensions and working conditions.
The Public and Commercial Services Union (PCS) confirmed that more than 700 of its members at the DVLA call centre in Swansea will stage a walkout on April 11 and April 12. The union said that the strike will likely cause disruptions to those making enquiries about their driving licences.
It comes after the PCS already put plans in place for a strike by 133,000 civil servants in 132 government departments on April 28. Meanwhile, Passport Office workers will begin a five-week stoppage on April 2.
