Mass meetings at Liverpool Airport as talks and strike ballot continue
20.10.07
Liverpool Airport managers, unions and staff held three mass meetings yesterday in a bid to avoid strikes in a dispute over pay. The GMB and Unite unions are balloting over industrial action after rejecting what was described by the airport as their 'final' pay offer.
Union officials and airport management have promised to continue talks whilst a month-long ballot on industrial action, which could lead to strikes during the busy festive period, takes place.
Airport spokesman Robin Tudor said they staged mass meetings yesterday for staff, including firefighters, engineers, air traffic control staff, airside safety officers and car park staff. Two more meetings are planned for Monday. He said: 'There was good dialogue and both parties shared their views.'
