Strike action involving more than 150 Birmingham airport security officers and terminal technicians, which had been due to get under way next week, has been called off after a new pay offer was accepted.
Operations at Birmingham airport were temporarily suspended
The "indefinite" action had been due to get under way on Tuesday (1 August). However, the Unite union on Thursday (27 July) confirmed its members at BHX had accepted a one-year pay deal, which will see workers’ pay increase by 13.25%, made up of a 10.5% consolidated rise and 2.75% non-consolidated.
The deal will also see two new Unite workplace reps installed, a wider collective bargaining agreement come into effect, and increased union organising access across the airport.
