Latest Sodexo Industrial Action Updates (3)
A long-running dispute involving Sodexo workers at the Sullom Voe oil and gas terminal in the Shetland islands is over after Unite members overwhelmingly backed an improved pay offer. The two year pay deal successfully negotiated by Unite was achieved after industrial action by around 30 Sodexo members. The terminal workers will receive a four per cent increase backdated to April 2025 along with a matching increase for the next year which will come into effect in April 2026.
The pay award includes the retention of an attendance bonus worth up to £1,000 for each year, and the workers will receive a one-off cost of living payment worth up to £1,225 for each worker in 2025 based on hours worked. The workers set to benefit from the pay deal perform various roles including mechanics, cleaners, plant operators, and electricians.
