Strike days should serve as 'wake-up call' to BT's top brass, says union
The two days of strike action by BT call center operators and engineers at the Openreach subsidiary should act as a “wake-up call” to the executive management team at the British telco but no further dates are yet scheduled.
In a message sent to members, Dave Kerr, general secretary at the Communication Workers Union said the strike days represented its members “fighting back against an intransigent employer, and showing them we mean business”. The CWU wanted a ten percent increase, and pointed out BT staff were effectively taking a pay cut as UK inflation was already more than 9 percent higher than a year earlier.
