Basildon CNH tractor strikes suspended for vote on new offer.

Strikes by more than 500 workers employed at CNH Industrial’s Basildon tractor factory have been suspended to allow workers to ballot on a new pay offer.

Industrial action scheduled for 18, 19, 20, 25, 26 and 27 June will not take place. If the offer is rejected by the membership, fresh strike action will be announced.

Unite regional officer Michelle Cook said: “As a sign of good faith, Unite has suspended strike action at CNH to allow workers to vote on the new offer. If rejected, industrial action will resume until an acceptable offer is put forward.”
