<p>The GMB said 400 of its members working as health physics monitors will stage a series of strikes from tomorrow in a row over pay.</p>
<p>Unite said its members at sub-contracting companies working at Sellafield will stage a wave of action as part of a campaign to have a full-time union convenor at the site.</p>
<p>The GMB members will strike for four hours from 8.30am tomorrow and for 48 hours from 6.30am on Wednesday.</p>
<p>The workers staged a 24 hour strike last month in the dispute over pay re-grading.</p>
<p>Senior organiser Chris Jukes accused managers of “repeatedly moving the goalposts” when a “perfectly reasonable” deal was possible.</p>
<p>Unite said its members working for nine sub-contractors will strike for two and a half hours on September 1, 9 and 16 followed by a 24 hour walkout on the 23rd.</p>
<p>Regional secretary Mick Whitley said: “Unite has repeatedly called for meaningful talks, but they have been rebuffed at every stage, and our members have no alternative but to take industrial action.</p>
<p>“The continuing attitude of the bosses underlines the draconian attitude of the contractors at Sellafield and means that industrial relations are now teetering on the edge of the abyss.”</p>
