First West Yorkshire says it is 'dismayed' by Unite's action.
BBC NewsSome 800 Unite members from First West Yorkshire will walk out indefinitely from Sunday, the union said, affecting dozens of routes.
First has agreed to change the date back in 2025, but Unite said it would leave drivers "struggling". "Not only did they put their and their families' health on the line by continuing to drive First buses, they also agreed to delay getting a pay rise." The union said delays in reverting to an April pay date would see workers "left struggling during the cost-of-living crisis" and would mean they might not get a pay increase until October.Andrew Cullen, managing director for First North and West Yorkshire, said the company was "very disappointed and dismayed" by the strike action.
