SIPTU members in Marks and Spencer vote for strike action
SIPTU members have voted unanimously in favour of industrial action in the Marks and Spencer store in Tallaght, Co. Dublin.
The union has issued the company with notice of industrial action to take place on or after Tuesday, 10th September.
SIPTU Organiser, Neil McGowan, said, “The result of the ballot shows that our members have become frustrated with the company and, in particular, its failure to engage meaningfully with their union to explore all options for the workers.”
“Union representatives are available to meet with management to negotiate a resolution to this dispute that adequately takes account of the workers’ interests.”
Mandate trade union members in the Tallaght store, and three others which the company plans to close, have also voted for industrial action.
