A large portion of the workforce have decided to take action amidst wage disagreements.
Workers at a Lancashire-based technology company have voted overwhelmingly for strike action after failing to reach an agreement regarding pay. ELE Advanced Technologies, who are based in Nelson, have been locked in pay discussions with staff who have decided to start striking on Wednesday May 1. The firm, which employs over 200 people, provides engineering solutions worldwide and specialises in the aerospace, industrial gas and commercial diesel engine sectors.
Unite regional officer, Ross Quinn said: “ELE Advanced Technologies has pushed our members to the limit. “Every single worker has been repeatedly let down by broken promises. Wages have not kept up with inflation. Moreover, investors of the company are set to see massive returns. “Strike action will inevitably cause shortages and production disruption for ELE’s customers but this dispute is entirely of its own making.
