CCTV operators and community safety workers are to target next weekend's Old Firm clash with strike action over pay.

 

Around 140 workers employed by Community Safety Glasgow (CSG), which is owned by the city council, will down tools between September) 9 and 11, selecting the dates as they include the renewal of league hostilities between Celtic and rangers, their first encounter of the season.

 

The trade union Unison said the dispute was over the level of shift payments CSG intend to make under a new pay scheme.

 

 

Some workers, it said, stand to lose around £3,000-a-year.

 

The union accused CSG of trying to pay their workers less than counterparts in Glasgow City Council for nightshift, at weekends and unsocial hours.

 

Those taking the action are members of Unite, GMB and Unison and include advocacy workers, community payback staff, community enforcement officers, security officers and CCTV workers.

 

Brian Smith, Unison Glasgow Branch Secretary, said: “The trade unions believe that the payment levels are far too low compared to those in other parts of the Glasgow City Council Family. For example, the nightshift payment in the council is almost double that which CSG intend to pay.

 

"The trade unions do not believe that the proposed payments adequately compensate workers who undertake shifts and our members have been left with no option other than to take strike action. Some workers are facing a pay cut of £3,000 per year.
