Workers at two Weetabix factories will launch four-day strikes from Monday in a dispute over pay and conditions.
Members of Unite at the company’s Kettering and Corby factories have been on strike every Tuesday and Wednesday since September over proposed changes to working practices that they claim could leave them up to £5,000 a year worse off.
The union claims engineers face cuts to their pay, terms and conditions, describing it as an example of a “fire and rehire” policy and Weetbix’s “corporate greed”, which the company denies.
Strikes are to take place every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
