First wave of strikes enter final day in Scotland

The first wave of strikes by council bin workers in Scotland has entered their final day in 13 council areas.

Unions launched industrial action on 18 August in a pay dispute with local government body Cosla.

The walkout in Edinburgh ended at 04:59 on Tuesday, but rubbish continues to pile up in other Scottish council areas, including Glasgow and Aberdeen.

On Monday, Unite, the GMB and Unison confirmed further strikes would be held after rejecting an increased pay offer.

Public Health Scotland has warned of a human health risk from overflowing waste and advised councils to decontaminate areas where bins have overflowed.

Unions had been seeking an agreement from Cosla similar to the one made to council workers in England - which included a £1,925 flat rate pay increase.

The pay dispute led to action by refuse staff at two-thirds of Scotland's councils and is also set to close schools and nurseries.

Edinburgh began the first of a series of strikes around the country after the three unions rejected an initial pay offer equivalent to a 3.5% increase.

The action escalated last week when refuse workers at a further 20 local authorities walked out despite a revised 5% offer.

A second wave of strikes is due to begin on 6 September, with hundreds of schools and nurseries also scheduled to close from 6 to 8 September. The action affecting Angus, Dundee and Perth and Kinross will take place from 7 to 9 September.

On Monday, Unite and the GMB rejected a further offer from Cosla, while Unison said it would be put to its members.
