More than 400 workers from HMRC (His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs) will go on strike for 18 days in May and June.
The Public and Commercial Services (PCS) Union said 432 of its members working as customer service advisers in Glasgow and Newcastle-upon-Tyne will walk out on:
- 10 – 12 May
- 15 – 19 May
- 22 – 26 May
- 29 – 31 May
- 1 – 2 June
The announcement came amid a dispute over pay, pensions, jobs and redundancy between the PCS and the government.
PCS general secretary Mark Serwotka said: “Our hard-working members in HMRC are fed up with being treated with disdain by a government that doesn’t seem to care about its own staff.
“If they did, ministers would be able to stop this strike action tomorrow by making a fair offer to help our members through the cost-of-living crisis and beyond.”
