Hundreds of thousands of UK public sector workers set to strike on budget day, March 15, to demand pay raises
In the UK, tens of thousands of public sector workers part of the Prospect union are planning to go on strike on March 15 regarding pay disputes and threats of job cuts. This strike action is planned for the government's budget day, and it is expected to align with additional strikes by PCS civil service union members, teachers, and junior doctors. While the British government has recently engaged in labor talks with the unions, workers are demanding a meaningful pay offer and improved conditions in order to call off their industrial actions.
