BBC journalists vote to strike against cuts
|
BBC Scotland journalists are set to walk out during two one-day strikes called for next month, after the corporation announced it was cutting jobs at its Pacific Quay headquarters in Glasgow.
It
is believed that television, radio and online news may be affected on 3
April and 9 April, after nearly 800 members of the National Union of
Journalists (NUJ) yesterday voted for industrial action in a national
ballot against compulsory redundancies. The BBC last night confirmed to The Scotsman that it was to shed at least 14 jobs in Glasgow.
A spokeswoman said: "The BBC is continuing to work very hard to minimise compulsory redundancies in BBC Scotland – a fact acknowledged by the NUJ – and has been able to reduce the potential number to 14.
