Weetabix workers step up strike action in pay and conditions row

WORKERS at two Weetabix factories are launching four-day strikes from today in a dispute over their pay and conditions.

Members of Unite at the cereal firm’s Kettering and Corby factories have been on strike every Tuesday and Wednesday since September.

The union claims engineers face cuts to their pay, terms and conditions, describing it as another example of “fire and rehire,” which the company denies.
