Heathrow strike looms for Easter holidays
Heathrow strikes could scupper holiday plans for thousands at Easter.
Over 3,000 security guards, engineers and firefighters will be balloted this week.
They have so far rejected a 10% pay deal.
If members take strike action it will inevitably cause severe disruption throughout Heathrow,” Unite regional co-ordinating officer Wayne King said.
“This is about need not greed.”
The ballot closes in mid-March.
A Heathrow strike could coincide with the Easter holidays.
Unite general secretary Sharon Graham slammed Heathrow for ‘gross hypocrisy’ over executive pay and bonuses.
Heathrow said: “We are extremely disappointed that Unite is tabling a formal ballot.”
“If strikes do go ahead the pay offer will be withdrawn.”
