Members of Unison, responsible for supporting primary school operations, have staged a strike over pay disputes for all council workers, impacting 50 schools in the area.
The strike action, concentrated in John Swinney's constituency, signifies a critical push by Unison against the declining value of council workers' pay, with a history of a 25% drop over 14 years.
The Scottish government stated that no additional funds would be available for pay negotiations this year, complicating the resolution of the ongoing disputes with the council staff.
Unison's ongoing actions highlight the dissatisfaction surrounding the current pay offers and underline the need for negotiations to truly address the pay decline experienced by council workers.
