Unite press release
For immediate release: Friday 21 April 2023
Strike action at St Mungo’s suspended
Unite members have suspended strike action at St Mungo’s which was due to begin this Monday (24 April).
Workers at St Mungo’s are being balloted on the charity’s new offer. Unite is recommending rejection of the offer which is well below the current rate of inflation.
Unite reps recognise the proposal is nowhere near acceptable but at this stage decided to ballot on the offer to ensure a strong mandate for further action. The ballot closes on Friday 5 May.
The four week strike was due to begin on Monday 24 April 2023 and end on 21 May 2023. Unite balloted over 500 workers across southern England including in London, Bristol, Brighton, Oxford, Bournemouth and Reading.
