Heathrow Airport Security Guards to Strike for 31 Days Over Pay
- Security guards at Heathrow Airport will escalate their strike action over pay into the busy summer months.
- Around 2,000 security officers at Heathrow airport will go on a 31-day strike over low pay starting June 24.
- Security guards at London's Heathrow Airport will escalate their strike action over pay into the busy summer months starting June 24 through August 27.
- Unite said security guards have rejected a 10.1% pay offer from Heathrow, which is below the level at which consumer price inflation has been running since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022.
- Heathrow said the majority of workers at the airport think the strike action is unjustified, but insisted it would continue to talk to Unite in hopes of resolving the issue.
