Weetabix workers have voted to go on strike as part of an ongoing dispute over pay.
Employees at the breakfast cereal company will stage protests outside the firm’s Burton Latimer and Corby sites, both in Northamptonshire, from 29 April.
The picket lines will be made up of members of the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers (Usdaw), which has been trying to negotiate a pay rise.
Weetabix is yet to respond to the ‘s request for a response.
Gavin Dadley, Usdaw’s regional secretary, said the negotiations had “not achieved an offer that could be recommended to the membership”.
“In light of this, we have decided to notify the company of our intention to commence industrial action,” he said.
“We remain firmly committed to arriving at a jointly-negotiated settlement to end this dispute.”
Workers at the site last went on strike in 2021 over a dispute about pay for unsocial hours.
