Snowplough workers on strike?
According to The Press and Journal Highland snowplough workers are threatening to go on strike if their pay dispute is not resolved at an employment tribunal.
There are only four of them, so it may be none of them realises that we’re not in winter anymore, so the threat of a strike is a bit daft. Surely it’s better for them to make threats round about October time which is when we can start to have snow up here.
For what it’s worth: I think they have a very good case. If they’re not allowed to work in the mornings following a night out with the ploughs, then they ought to be properly compensated.
