Industrial action over pay and conditions will increase disruption caused by lorry driver shortages
Delivery group Yodel is set to face strike action after 250 of its couriers voted to protest over pay and conditions, potentially adding to disruption caused by lorry driver shortages.
The dispute, which could affect deliveries for Marks & Spencer, Aldi and Very from Yodel’s depots in Hatfield in Hertforshire, Glasgow and Wednesbury in the West Midlands, according to the GMB union, comes as campaigners leverage worker shortages, caused by a mix of Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic, to fight for better rights.
