UNISON Workers Vote to Strike for Fair Pay

UNISON has announced that council workers have voted to back industrial action in a dispute over pay.

The union says more than 92% of those who took part in a consultation are in favour of striking.

Local government employer body Cosla has offered all council workers in Scotland a 3% increase for 2025-26.

UNISON Scotland’s local government committee will now meet. They will discuss the next steps in balloting their members formally. This is over strike action.
