Strike ballot over Argos' driver transfer plans
Unite has announced a strike ballot of 420 workers at the Lutterworth site over Argos’ controversial plans to transfer 96 drivers in Leicestershire to Eddie Stobart. Workers will be balloted from 17 to 31 May over whether they want to strike or take alternative industrial action in a bid to remain Argos employees.

“The current pay offer, in reality a real terms pay cut, has done nothing to address the recruitment and retention crisis that is undermining patient care. Rather than tackling the causes of the crisis, the government is missing in action.” @UniteSharon unitetheunion.org/news-events/ne… pic.twitter.com/l08lzb9vJ2
