Staff say their work is vital for the country's naval military defence capability.
Nuclear naval base staff are considering strike action over cost-saving plans they said will put them at risk.
But in renewing their contract with Serco Maritime, the MoD reduced the price forcing the firm to consider reducing the services they offer and potentially cutting staff. They said they’ve had no consultation and it would be impossible to offer the services the MoD needs with such a huge reduction in cost.
Alongside Faslane, workers at Devonport and Portsmouth bases in England are also considering whether to support strike action for the same reasons.
