Bin strikes in Scotland suspended

Unison and GMB have suspended proposed industrial action involving their members in the Council’s Waste and Street Cleansing Services. Their members were due to go on strike from this Wednesday (14 August) to Wednesday 21 August as part of a national dispute over local government pay.

However, following a revised pay offer from COSLA, the national association for local authorities, the unions have suspended their action and will consult with members on the offer.
