Workers are striking over the next week
Unite members at Co-op Funeralcare on Bogmoor Place have taken up strike action following the rejection of a real-terms pay cut. Around 50 workers based at the Co-op's only coffin manufacturing facility in the UK rejected the offer and voted to take strike action.
Willie Thomson, Unite industrial officer, added: “Co-op Funeralcare have left our members with no option but to take strike action as they have failed to table an acceptable wage offer. We have given negotiations every opportunity to resolve this dispute but the Co-op are failing to recognise the cost of living crisis.
A spokeswoman said: "Our colleagues at our Glasgow coffin factory are a hugely valued part of our Co-op and following ongoing discussions with Unite we are disappointed that we have not been able to reach an agreement about pay.
