Deliveries of Fosters, Heineken, Kronenbourg, John Smith’s, Strongbow, plus Britvic soft drinks will be affected as workers prepare to strike for 24 hours from 10am on 11 September to 10am on 12 September. There will also be a continuous ban on overtime and a work-to-rule.
The union is warning that it could step up action unless the company works with the union to resolve the dispute.
The issue at the centre of the dispute is the way the company has breached the National Ways Agreement that governs the terms and conditions of the workforce. The workers believe the changes being proposed will lead to significant jobs losses.
