UK: A proposed strike by Cemex UK heavy good vehicles (HGV) drivers threatens the supply of construction materials for major construction projects, says the Unite union. The 82 HGV drivers who are members of Unite returned an 87% vote in favour of strike action and action short of strike in response to wage negotiations. Continuous work to rule industrial action, where employees follow the minimum requirements of their contract will start on 22 May 2017, followed by an initial 24 hours strike on 26 May 2017. The union says that projects set to be affected by the dispute include work at Heathrow airport and the Mersey Gateway.
