The RMT is starting with a walk-out of bus workers at Stagecoach Southwest, and Unite is planning a strike for the first week of November in many of Stagecoach’s other franchises. The action includes staff at Stagecoach’s north-east services, which voted overwhelming to back strike action. Other bus companies, including Arriva North West, also face possible strike action. Unions say drivers’ pay, which in many areas is less than £10 (€11.83) an hour, must improve to attract more recruits and stop existing staff leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on:\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.theguardian.com\u002Fuk-news\u002F2021\u002Foct\u002F14\u002Fbus-network-in-britain-facing-strikes-over-drivers-low-pay\"> in English.\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For more information, please contact Paul de Beer or Oana Ciuca, De Burcht (Scientific Bureau for the Dutch Trade Union Movement) \u003Ca href=\"mailto:p.t.debeer@uva.nl\">p.t.debeer@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fa> or the Head of communications at the ETUI, Mehmet Koksal \u003Ca href=\"mailto:mkoksal@etui.org\">mkoksal@etui.org\u003C\u002Fa>.
