Across England and Wales, thousands of ambulance workers are planning to go on strike over pay disagreements with the government. This impending industrial action reflects both the job role pressures and cost of living pressures that are weighing on healthcare workers in the UK. Ambulance workers have also voiced concerns regarding unsafe staffing levels, which is also a factor contributing to their decision to strike. However, the impact of this strike is not likely to be very large because there of the emergency care requirement laws.
