"British union Unite suspends Tesco strikes after new pay offer", 8 December 2021
...Unite said...that pre-Christmas strike action by workers at four Tesco distribution centres had been suspended after an improved pay offer.
Unite said it was recommending its members accept the supermarket group's offer of a minimum of a 5.5% pay increase backdated to July 2021 and an additional 0.5% from February 2022. The union had previously rejected a 4% offer.
If the deal is rejected in a ballot of members then fresh strike action will be announced, but that is unlikely to be before January 2022, the union said.
"We’re pleased to have agreed a pay deal with Unite that it recommends to its members. Colleagues at these centres will no longer be taking industrial action," a Tesco spokesperson said...
