Eighty-six per cent of GMB Scotland members and 89 of Unite members voted in favour of strike action.
Scottish Water workers represented by two unions have overwhelmingly backed strike action in light of a pay dispute.
“The way the company has allowed this situation to arise and then deteriorate so badly has been inept and needlessly antagonistic. Mr Plant’s salary is £25,000 higher than his direct predecessor despite the pay policy expecting a 10% reduction in the remuneration package. “Instead, the boardroom has found the time to award its new chief executive an eye-watering pay package.Due to the frontline roles undertaken by employees in sewers, water treatment centres and on pipework, both unions believe strike action will directly impair Scottish Water’s ability to respond to water leakages, flooding, pollution and quality concerns.
